Simone ate and slept better than ever.
Even after sending a curse to Anasis, she slept deeply once and then went about her life as usual as if nothing had happened.
The only thing that has changed is that she opens her mouth to speak significantly less.
She had regular meetings with her companions after dinner, but other than that, she ate alone and spent most of her time reading books.
“Wow... what a great person.”
Orkan, who was watching Simone from afar, was surprised.
“Even a well-trained magician can’t do something like that.”
Yeah, what Simone was doing right now could be described as 'acting'.
To send a curse to some continent across the sea and then try to keep it there.
It was something that could not even be attempted without a certain amount of mental strength and corresponding mana.
“Lord Geneon, I don’t know much about necromancers, so I’m asking.”
“Speak.”
For some reason, Geneon, a cat with a more haggard appearance than Simone, nodded his head nervously.
“Are necromancers, or rather, the first generation of necromancers, originally like that?”
The question, “Is that so?” had countless implications. Whether all necromancers, not just Simone, would not hesitate to commit such an act, whether they had enough mana to do such a thing and still be fine, etc.
Born and raised in the Luan Empire, Orkan has limited knowledge of necromancers, and the only necromancers he knows are Simone and Anasis.
Since they are all doing things that go against Orkan's common sense, he asking this just out of genuine curiosity.
"Ha!"
Geneon let out a sigh-like laugh, then immediately wiped his expression and said.
“How could that be?”
“I guess so?”
“Simone is particularly strong. Her actions must be due to the confidence that comes from strength.”
Anasis and Simone were born with exceptionally strong powers among the first generation.
Among the two, Simone's power has the potential to be comparable to anyone in this world.
Innate focus and action, and the power to support her.
Geneon had never seen anyone so talented in his entire life.
It can be said that Abel has skills and talents that are on par with hers.
“Ha, I don’t know anymore.”
Of course, Geneon knew that Simone had great talent to stand up to Anasis. That was why he took her as his disciple.
But the things he's seen of Simone lately are surprising, if not scary.
'That power probably comes from the cooperation of God.'
It is unknown what secret conversation Simone had with God that day at the temple, but it is certain that from that day on, Simone's spirits changed.
It was from that time that he began to lose the ability to hear her inner thoughts, which had always been so obvious.
Perhaps Geneon's magic power can no longer detect her.
“Mr. Geneon, are you okay?”
“It’s not okay. I’m worried, and I can’t seem to calm down when I see that kid doing that. But...”
Simone seemed to have chosen which path she would take that day.
In that case, it is also the teacher's role to simply follow behind and watch carefully.
For now, it would be best for Simone to just watch.
At that moment, Simone, who had been quietly reading a book, flinched, then put the book down and smiled faintly.
“Got it.”
Time passed.
The Crown Prince has completely finished his work in the Serk Empire, and the Duke and Duchess of Illeston have finished sorting out their belongings, so now all that remains is to return to Luan.
Since Anasis was struck by Simone's curse, she has become noticeably more relaxed and has regained her usual composure.
Curses are difficult to cast, but once cast, there isn't much for the caster to do.
Of course, it was a hassle to constantly send curses because Anasis's rebellion was so strong, but it was better than Anasis taking the Demon King's power.
The only problem is that most of the souls that were collected were used to curse the giant Anasis, so there was a pretty big penalty for dealing a blow to Anasis.
“Simone! Come quickly. If you lose your companions, you won’t be able to find them.”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
Simone exhaled as she boarded the ship bound for Luan with the Grand Duchess Florier.
Every night, she checks on Anasis' condition through the cursed soul.
As expected of Anasis, she didn't even have a mental breakdown even though she was locked in a curse for a whole week.
'She looked tired. I guess killing her with a curse wasn't possible after all.'
Simone thought it would be nice to die before reaching Luan, if possible, but looking at the situation, it seems like that's impossible.
Well, she didn't have high expectations since the first curse she ever cast was on Anasis.
But still, this is somewhere. Anasis is suffering from the curse that Simone put in place.
'Just try it once.'
They curse, kill, and play with people without any concern.
There were many times when people almost lost their lives by playing into Anasis' hands, and many people died because of it.
Viscount Chaylor, who became Simone's right-hand man, is there, and no matter how strong Anasis is, there are naturally wizards in the Luan Empire who are just as skilled as the wizards who captured Anasis in the past.
If the purpose was simply to prevent Anasis from accessing the Demon King's body, it would have been much easier to ask the Emperor through Count Chaylor to place soldiers and wizards around the lake.
However, the reason Simone went to such lengths to waste energy and go through the trouble of casting a curse was for revenge and to seize the initiative.
She wants Anasis to feel frustrated, realizing that no matter how much she struggles, she can never escape the curse, returning the fear Simone endured so far.
If Simone hadn't borrowed the power of the God of Death, Anasis would have broken the curse long ago, but since she couldn't escape the curse, she must be quite confused and bewildered.
Simone, who had already boarded the boat, handed over her luggage to the servant and headed towards the railing.
A cool sea breeze and the sound of the ship's horn. Simone leaned back as the peaceful but not entirely pleasant wind hit her.
“What’s so funny about this?”
She thought it would be so refreshing and fun that they would curse like that, but it really isn't fun at all.
'Just a little more.'
And when Anasis, who could not escape the curse, began to fear Simone.
Only then would the roles of Anasis and Simone be reversed.
The day Simone and her party arrived in Luan.
Rain began to fall throughout the Luan Empire.
The rain that had been falling within the empire gradually spread and soon began to pour down across the entire continent and across the sea.
“Hey, Simone! Why are you here now? Do you know how long I’ve been waiting for you!”
As soon as Simone and her party got off the ship, the anxious Count Chaylor rushed towards them but then took a step back after looking at the Illestons.
“Simone.... Something big has happened-”
“It’s raining. How is it near the lake?”
“Haa... This is seriously serious!”
The most common signs of the Demon King's resurrection are rain and natural disasters. The ground near the lake had already begun to shake long ago, and the lake's water also overflowed.
Nearby villagers began to die for no reason, and starting this morning, the stale air began to spread, making it difficult to breathe, and eventually, the people were evacuated.
“What’s more serious is that this morning, the space-time of three lakes has already begun to distort!”
“Three places?”
Louis, who had been listening quietly from behind, approached with a sunken face.
“Simone, I’m sorry, but we’ll have to return to the castle first. We need to prepare for the situation quickly.”
“Yes, I’ll see you at the lake in a bit.”
Louis quickly headed to the palace with the other pale nobles.
Simone pressed her lips together. The distortion of space and time meant that the seal had been completely released, not just a sign of resurrection.
Three of the eleven parts of the already torn Demon King have been unsealed.
It's hard to untie once, but once you start to untie one, it keeps untieing.
“Let’s go to the lake.”
Simone got into the road carriage. Abel and his party followed her into the carriage as well, and Count Chaylor looked embarrassed and fell a little from the carriage.
“Are you, are you going? Is it because space and time are distorted? Where Anasis is imprisoned... I, shall I go too?”
“Ugh...”
As Simone shook her head in annoyance, Grand Duke Illeston sighed and squeezed Count Chaylor's shoulder.
“You go with me to the castle. You must help His Highness prepare for battle.”
“Thank you, Your Highness! Thank you, Sir!”
Simone, who had been watching Count Chaylor, slammed the door nervously, and Abel, sitting on the coachman's seat, started the carriage.
The Demon King will soon be resurrected. Simone and her group headed to the place of death where time and space were distorted.
Even after sending a curse to Anasis, she slept deeply once and then went about her life as usual as if nothing had happened.
The only thing that has changed is that she opens her mouth to speak significantly less.
