Abandoned Priest at the Hero’s Party

Polymorph’s Secret

Polymorph Curse…?

Recall the memories and recall the stories you heard. But I’ve never even heard of anything like it. The only thing that comes to mind is that the technology that dragons use when transforming into humans is polymorph.

But that wouldn’t be a curse.

The words are still the same, so maybe there is something related?

-This is a curse developed by the Demon King, Grimudo. A curse that turns a human into a non-human.

So when I heard the explanation, I wasn’t surprised anymore.

grim too. grim too. again not so much. How many times do you hang out with him? Now, if there was any problem, it seemed that he could be suspicious of him first.

“Surely, Araidel, the saint of your school…”

-Yeah, I’m under the Polymorph Curse. Now, as a bird, he has forgotten how to speak and how to think. It just exists as an animal that lives according to its instincts.

“You mean the curse that turns a man into an animal? Well then, Urinell, Lucia, and Parnell too…!”

– They can say they’re fine, and they can say they’re not. They did not turn into beasts. However, right now, he is caught by Mage Harmael and there is no way to escape.

what?

For a moment, my head felt dizzy. Without realizing it, I sat down. No matter how far apart we are now, we were once a team.

It was hard to believe that they had met such a tragic end. But thinking and thinking, there was no reason for that goddess to lie to me. By lying about the current status of the Brave Party, what do you mean by that?

Maybe a hundred if a hundred, it would be the truth. Even though I knew it, it was hard to believe.

“What the hell happened to the hero party?

-I saw the scene with the eyes of my Araidel and Reenheim. I don’t know what happened after the war, but the Brave Party clashed with Grimudo. I couldn’t even draw, and I barely managed to escape. However, before they could even lift themselves up, Harmael attacked them. And just recently, I completely captured it.

“If you knew the situation so well, then why…”

None of the stories were shocking. It was absurd, so I had to ask for a more detailed explanation and listen to the details.

If all of this is true, then why did he just let things get so bad? Was the hero just a discarded hand?

– Totally, it’s my fault.

“It is natural. Why the hell did you abandon them?”

-Pride. And because of fear. I was afraid that Elysiana Hillai would take advantage of this opportunity to take my place. The supreme god of the continent. Drunk on a prestige of nothing, he tried to do everything secretly in order to somehow maintain this position. Then I just woke up before.

The goddess sighed and looked at me. Then he suddenly came up to me and knelt down. He tried to stop him, but he continued to speak before that.

– The one behind you. He just showed me the truth. What I was looking for was meaningless.

– Being the supreme god was just a false name that other people called. I gave up on my daughter to keep such a nonsense. left in crisis In the end it was too late.

-You have a mission. A mission to go to the North Pole. Now, I can’t tell you to turn around and go to the Demon Realm and save the Hero Party from Harmael. But someday, if you have the chance to help them…

-Can you help me then?

I closed my eyes, shook my head, and thought for a moment. The shrine and the imperial palace were kind to each other a while ago, and now they are not happy. Reinforcements can’t be hoped for, and Harmael is by no means a funny opponent.

Even if I, Roka, Kisea-san, and the princess take their path to the Demon Realm, will they be able to save those who are held hostage? That’s difficult. Rather, it is easier to subdue Harmael.

He had to take the neutralized hostage completely out of the hands of the demon. Even if the hostage dies, there is no point in rescuing it. It requires a lot of preparation.

It is not something that can be achieved by suddenly taking people in. The desire to help is like a chimney, but there is no way to do it right now.

Fortunately, according to the goddess, Harmael has no intention of touching the hostages for the time being. That was reassuring. It’s not too late to deal with urgent tasks right away.

“…if there is an opportunity, I will help as much as I can.”

I’m a human too, and when things overlap so much, I have no choice but to set priorities. However, it would be absurd to send people away for this kind of work.

If Roka and I go to the North Pole, Kisea-san is sent to the Shinigami, and the princess is sent to the Demon Realm, just thinking about it will draw the conclusion. It doesn’t matter how many more Grimudoya there are, but what the Shinigami and Harmael could have succeeded will be defeated.

“But I don’t know if that opportunity will come or if it will come to me. If such an opportunity comes to me, I promise I will not miss it.”

– That alone is something to be grateful for.

The goddess, who had been hesitating, left with one last word.

-Polymorph is a curse that cannot be dispelled. At least not in our own strength. So, you are the only one who has the possibility to do it.

Polymorph curse. I had never done anything like that before, so I had no choice but to say that I would do my best. I’m not sure if the opportunity to do it for me will come or not.

Yeah, maybe Azahadaka, the dragon, knows a little about Polymorph.

I saw the opportunity and thought I should ask. At least if I knew exactly what the curse was, I thought I would be able to estimate the possibility of Haeju.

*****

bang!

Now, wandering around the key point of the damaged magic circle, Ardein slammed the dragon’s sword hard. Then, when the magic was poured into it, Azahadaka in it repaired the magic circle.

“Hey, that’s really cool!”

“After all, the master of magic! great race! A transcendental species that is different from terrestrial creatures!”

All the wizards of the imperial family who assisted with the work spit out admiration. The dragon’s nose shrugged at the sound of praise, but no one could see it because he was inside the sword.

“But you are a great man.”

Ardain approached the sword and raised his horse. This dragon is a dragon that returns the same amount of treatment to you. It was very easy to understand, and the princess always treated the dragon with utmost respect.

[Well. Please tell me.]

“Are you sure you can’t take a human form? Oh, you haven’t been able to use Polymorph yet?”

[Poly… Morph?]

The black dragon in the shape of a lizard opened its eyes wide. It was the expression of what kind of bullshit you were talking about.

[What is it?]

“In the past, there were records that great people who walked the earth took human form using a method called polymorph, so I asked…”

[Is this the first time you hear it?]

Embarrassed Ardein spit out every single word. He must have known this dragon better than himself, but he was just embarrassed because he didn’t.

“That’s right, our royal family are descendants of a human and a dragon in human form…”

[I, really? I thought he, his kin, after mutating the size smaller, produced a hybrid through that, and so… process? Wasn’t that?]

As he imagined the process of a dragon who had shrunk to a size similar to that of a human doing the same thing with a human, Ardain felt nauseated and shook his head to disperse his thoughts.

No matter how much I brainwashed myself that the birth of life was a noble thing, I never wanted to think about it again. Hopefully this isn’t the truth of history.

‘Is the polymorph really a lie?’

Burr. she trembled If it is true that their ancestors were born that way, it was all too obvious why this had become a secret. No one wanted to brag about this.

No matter how noble a dragon’s bloodline is, a dragon that has turned into a human and a dragon of ten purity are absolutely different. There is no way I can tell such a story in front of the people.

In the end, he would have had no choice but to create a lie called Polymorph.

[You’re talking nonsense…]

Nearby wizards, their faces turned red, desperately pretended not to hear. However, he took out a small notebook from his pocket and quickly recorded the current question and answer. Some sorcerers even blushed on their cheeks.

But they are wrong. The attempt to uncover the truth by interviewing the dragon was good, but we forgot that the dragon had been in a state of being punished for a long time.

Azahadaka was punished in the early days when dragons would descend on this star. It was the next thing that the dragon made contact with the demon king and exchanged knowledge with each other.

Polymorph is a technique developed by the Demon King and passed on to the Dragon. Azahahadaka, who had never seen a Grimudo, was unaware of the existence of such technology. Does a dragon turn into a human? It was just a dog whistle.

‘I hate it anyway.’

It’s been a long time since I thought of my fellow countrymen, and I felt bad. The evil dragon looked up at the sky and frowned.

Her people who had gone far away abandoned her and disappeared. She endured only seeing the fixed sentence, but no one came to visit her even when her sentence was full.

The confinement sentence, which removes the heart from the body and traps the dragon spirit in the heart, is a prison sentence in human terms. Of course there is a deadline. After the deadline, other dragons bring the body and put the heart back in. It is a kind of release because you can escape from the prison called the heart and enjoy freedom again.

‘really. I’d rather live here with these monkeys.’

However, even after the expiration date, no one came to visit the dragon. He only thought that his people had abandoned him. The feeling of betrayal that pierced to the bones didn’t come out.

He did not want to visit the people who abandoned him and left him on this planet. Even if she regains her body, she intends to live on this planet. Rather, living in the midst of people who praised him seemed not a bad option.
