Volume 2, Chapter 86 – The Malevolence’s Curse? Well, Just Remove It~
The Elven race, One of the most ancient races in the world. They possessed beautiful forms, long lifespans, exceptional magical talent, and superior control over spiritual energy.
A thousand years ago, before the Holy War erupted, They were a dominant power, one of the most powerful forces on Luxaris. For a very long time, they were beyond human reach.
More than a thousand years ago, after human forces led by the Shenluo Empire launched the Holy War, the elves faced catastrophic destruction. Although elves were powerful, their numbers were relatively few.
In the face of Shenluo’s meticulously prepared flood of steel and deadly poison gas, they ultimately had no choice but to surrender. Their territories were occupied by Shenluo, and almost the entire race was slaughtered. The few survivors mostly became experimental subjects for Shenluo or playthings for high officials.
As a powerful figure from a thousand years ago, Xi Xuan was quite familiar with this history. Precisely because of this understanding, Xi Xuan was now extremely shocked.
It’s worth noting that Ancient Fae were the most powerful individuals among the elven race. Though few in number, only in single digits, each possessed Divine Departure Realm strength… Their terrifying combat power had once caused Shenluo to struggle desperately.
Shenluo had only managed to eliminate those few Ancient Fae after paying a heavy price. As a squad commander who participated in that campaign, Xi Xuan’s memories of that period were particularly fresh.
To ensure all Ancient Fae were eliminated, Shenluo had spared no effort in finishing them off. Moreover, The power and life of Ancient Fae were bound to the elven Sacred Spirit Mother Tree. With the Sacred Spirit Mother Tree burned to ashes, why would there still be an Ancient Fae? Where exactly did this Ancient Fae emerge from?
Gazing at the cyan silhouette, Xi Xuan felt deeply puzzled. And also, Weren’t elves supposed to excel at magical attacks? This one, How was her physical combat… So extraordinary?
At this moment, Under Xi Xuan’s astonished gaze, the mech girl who had previously been quite troublesome for Xi Xuan was now being pummeled like a sandbag by the elven maiden.
In just a few seconds, She had been knocked flying dozens of times, with sparks constantly erupting all over her body, as if she might lose control and explode at any moment.
Of course, Under Moande’s programmed directives, Su’s attacks wouldn’t stop before Xi Xuan was completely incapacitated. Staring at the elven maiden’s face, Su had already identified her as an obstacle to completing her mission.
And Su’s method of dealing with obstacles to her mission was quite simple. Direct elimination.
So, After being knocked flying once more, Su’s mechanical eyes again burst with terrifying purple light, and the laser blade in her hand completed its energy charge, slashing toward the elven maiden with tremendous force.

Although Su, after extensively depleting her energy, could only muster an attack at around the mid-level Divine Departure Realm, the energy it contained still made Xi Xuan anxious.
However, Faced with such an attack, the elven maiden merely frowned indifferently.
“Hmm… how annoying, I’m in a hurry to get back.” A flash of displeasure crossed the elven maiden’s dark red eyes.
The next moment, With a gathering of ice-blue light in her palm, a blade constructed of cold ice suddenly appeared in the elven maiden’s hand.
Gripping the sword hilt with both hands, the elven maiden raised it high,
?!!
“This, this is?!”
Seeing this stance, Xi Xuan’s eyes contracted, with unprecedented shock continuously flooding the old Celestial Augur Knight’s eyes.
In the next instant, Under Xi Xuan’s incredulous gaze, the elven maiden swung the blade.
In a flash, Nine slashes almost simultaneously struck Su’s body.
After the sword light passed, Su’s charged laser blade suddenly collapsed, transforming into a sky full of purple light particles. The powerful energy waves gathered around her body instantly crumbled. This ancient weapon became like a puppet with cut strings, crashing to the ground, unable to move.
Although Su’s brain chip continued to issue attack commands, having lost connection with key parts of her body, Su was powerless despite her “will”… all she could do was struggle and twitch on the ground.
“This, this? How could it be?” Xi Xuan muttered in a daze, as if unable to believe everything happening before his eyes was real.

Although he could have subdued this Valkyrie if he hadn’t been injured, to do it like this elven woman? Instantly and precisely destroying the opponent’s neural connection elements, causing paralysis? Xi Xuan admitted he couldn’t have done it.
To achieve this, one would need to be particularly familiar with these humanoid weapons of Shenluo. And from the elven maiden’s reaction just now, she was indeed very familiar with such weapons. Perhaps… she even had considerable combat experience against them?
Of course, Most importantly, That sword technique she just used?!
“…”
That skill, Was it Ming-ge’s sword technique? Why would this elf know Yue-ge’s sword technique?!
…
“Cough, cough, cough!!”
As if there was no time to think further, with the pain in his abdomen going wild, Xi Xuan couldn’t help but let out a painful wail, with blood uncontrollably flowing from the corner of his mouth.
“Hmm?”
Noticing Xi Xuan’s abnormal state, after kicking Su offline with one foot, the elven maiden turned to look at this pain-stricken Xi Xuan.
“What’s wrong with you, kid, why are you in such pain?”
Faced with this question, while desperately mobilizing spiritual energy to suppress the tearing sensation spreading from his abdomen, Xi Xuan smiled bitterly:
“A curse…”

“In your abdomen?”
“Yes.”
“Why not just remove the curse?”
The elven maiden tilted her head, speaking as if it were the most obvious thing.
“Remove it?”
“Yes, just use soul power to dismantle the curse’s magic array, and it’s removed, right?”
“Uh.”
Hearing such naive words from her, after a brief daze, Xi Xuan shook his head helplessly.
“Haha, it’s not as simple as you imagine.”
His curse Was set by the Abyssal Lord Polarvitan. It couldn’t be removed by ordinary methods, otherwise… he wouldn’t have lived in such pain all these years.
“This curse cannot be broken… this is… hmm?! Wait! What, what are you doing!”
“Helping you remove the curse, what’s the big deal?”
As she spoke, The elven maiden nonchalantly reached toward Xi Xuan’s abdomen.

At this sight, Xi Xuan’s expression changed dramatically.
“Hey! Stop!”
“Don’t act recklessly! This is the Abyssal Lord’s curse! If touched carelessly, your soul will be corroded and eventually torn to pieces!”
Seemingly recalling the terrible deaths of those healers, Xi Xuan’s tone became extremely anxious. He even disregarded the pain from his wound and directly reached out to stop the elven maiden’s action.
No matter what, The elven maiden before him had just saved him. Xi Xuan didn’t want her to be unknowingly corroded and killed by the Abyssal Lord’s curse.
However, The next moment, Xi Xuan’s hand froze in place, and his entire person displayed an expression as if he’d seen a ghost.
Because, Under Xi Xuan’s somewhat terrified gaze, the elven maiden’s hand touched his abdomen… and simply squeezed firmly.
The curse imprinted on his abdomen, belonging to the Abyssal Lord, the curse mark that had troubled him for decades, was casually crushed into fragments. The pain that had been constantly present disappeared completely, and Xi Xuan’s entire body felt unprecedentedly light.
“There, isn’t that better? Why make yourself suffer so much… are you stupid?”
Waving her hand, the elven maiden’s gaze toward Xi Xuan even contained a trace of sympathy.
Seeing this, Blinking, this First Celestial Augur Knight remained dazed for a long while befor
e barely managing to squeeze out a word from his mouth.
“What??”
