After pretending to be blind in front of the cursed king and being exposed

Miko Urakami Aoi's experience was similar to what Rina thought, she was the one who worked the most, but ended up being the worst in that family.

The women of the Urakami family have a certain chance of inheriting the spell, and the status of the Urakami family depends entirely on these women who can remove the curse for the nobles.

Pitiful for these witches of all ages, they are all living under the control of the Patriarchs of each generation.

The previous Miko of the Urakami family is the younger sister of the current Patriarch, Aoi's aunt.

Aoi did not show any special abilities when she was born, and women of the Urakami family who cannot learn magic arts have no value in this family.

Only Kui's aunt treats her well, takes care of her, teaches her to read and plays games with her.

One day, Aoi saw the curse spirit in the yard, and the innocent and curious Aoi stretched out her hand in the direction of the curse spirit.

"Auntie, then..."

There was a loud "snap" that even scared the surrounding maids.

The back of Aoi's hand was photographed flushed red.

Aunt's expression was uneasy, terrified and unbelievable. When she realized what she had done, she turned her head to comfort the crying Aoi.

When Aoi calmed down, she saw her aunt's serious expression for the first time: "Aoi, promise Auntie, don't tell anyone that you can see those things."

Aoi nodded seriously, she liked her aunt the most.

Aoi always thought that she could grow up happily with her aunt, until that day, when she was playing in the courtyard, she saw her aunt being carried back.

The witches of the Urakami family are all unfortunate, no one is worried about their safety, they will use everything to get rid of the curse spirits of those noble families.

She didn't know what happened to her aunt at that time, she only knew that doctors came and went, her mother knelt and crawled there, and her father lost his temper several times.

When she worked up the courage to go to her aunt's room, she almost screamed.

In my aunt's room, what is that big snake coiled on the roof? It will definitely hurt my aunt.

At that time, Aoi was only 13 years old, and she always remembered what her aunt didn't let her say, but if she didn't say it, her aunt would die...

The only person in the world who cared about her was about to die.

She knelt in front of her father and told him that there was a strange big snake in her aunt's room, and hoped that her father would find other witches or exorcists to help her aunt.

That was the first time that Aoi's father looked at her directly, and it was also the first time she saw his father show such ecstasy towards her.

Later, the big snake disappeared, but my aunt was bedridden from then on.

Aoi is sent to her aunt's room every day, and is asked by her mother to learn how to use magic from her aunt.

"Didn't I tell you not to say it!" The aunt, who was clearly struggling to speak, lost her temper at her with red eyes.

"But, but I don't want you to die, aunt." Aoi really likes her aunt the most.

From then on, my aunt never played with her again, and took her to master the art every day.

Aoi also practiced the spells hard. If she had learned the spells with her aunt early and went out with her aunt early, would her aunt not have been injured so badly?

She gradually hated herself a little.

When Aoi had become a witch who could eliminate those cursed spirits by herself, her aunt could never get up from the bed again.

Later, my aunt's room was empty.

Rina pieced together through immature words, and finally there was such a story.

And the latest chapter of the diary reads:

——I can't take it anymore, Auntie, I want to find you.

Bound by the fate of the family, struggling under the curse, no wonder...

What kind of family responsibility? If you are sold, you should not help count the money, but resist.

"Can I call my mother?"

Urakami Yuki, who had just withdrawn from Urakami-sama, was told by the maid that the miko wanted to see her.

Aoi is more reliable than that woman, and in the past two years, the maiden of the Urakami family has had a better reputation among nobles than other exorcist families, until today...

Why does Aoi still have the face to take the initiative to find her? She can't even do the only thing this family needs her to do. Thinking about it carefully, Aoi seems to be a different person since yesterday's serious illness.

Ever since that woman died, Aoi has been obediently listening to her, never talking too much or making decisions on her own, what happened today?Is it true that as Urakami-sama said, he takes himself seriously when he honorably calls Miko-sama?

Urakami Yuki pushed open the sliding door, and saw "Aoi" standing in the middle of the room with a smile on her face.

She closed the sliding door again, "Master Miko, you have something to look for..."

Urakami Yuki, who had a lot of opinions on this witch just a second ago, only felt the pain spread from her back to her limbs. Her whole body was pressed against the wooden wall, and her neck was surrounded by a slender hand.

And Aoi looked at her with a look she had never seen before, "I just want to ask a few questions, if you call someone, I'll kill you right away."

***

With the cool wind blowing on her cheeks, Lina walked in the cemetery where there were few people, feeling the long-lost freedom for this body.

It was only when she made a move that she realized that this seemingly weak body possessed an unexpected burst of astonishing strength.

She didn't expect to treat that "mother" really well, but after asking the question, Mrs. Urakami passed out directly.Later, she dragged Mrs. Urakami into the laid quilt to delay the time of being discovered, and then easily opened the window, almost without encountering any obstacles, and left the Urakami house.

A pet that has been collared for a long time will not run away if the collar is taken off.

Lena hates this.

The Urakami family is not aristocratic, and the cemetery buried in their family is not much better than that of ordinary residents, but they criticize the witches who brought them status and wealth everywhere.

Linai finally knew where the two crossings had the most in common. Apart from being able to see the curse spirit and master the spell, they both had a sad fate that they couldn't get rid of.

Since Aoi can't do it, let her do it with little effort.

The tombstone stood tall in the cemetery, and Linai spent a lot of effort to find Keiko Urakami's tombstone. There were no flowers or traces of living people's nostalgia in front of the monument.

"Aoi, I know you can hear me." Linai put a bunch of freshly picked flowers in front of Aunt Aoi's tombstone, as if she was chatting with a friend, "It's so simple to accept fate, you really Are you willing? The aunt you like so much was killed by your family and monsters together, when she was seriously ill in bed, what she wanted was to teach you how to use spells and how to help you survive."

Rina could feel her heart speeding up a little bit when she mentioned Keiko Urakami, which was Aoi's reaction.

Her hand slowly stroked the words on the tombstone. From the eyes of others, she seemed to be chatting with a deceased relative: "It was never you who was wrong, it was the curse spirit who hurt your aunt, and it was Urakami who refused to save her." Family, don't you want to get rid of the curse that killed your aunt and the Urakami family? If you can't, I can help you."

Linai's voice was soft, but her hand touching the word "Urakami" was slowly tightening: "You must know that your aunt's last wish is that you live a good life."

The wind blew on Rina's face, it was no longer cool, but a little chilly, she reached out and touched the tears gushing from the bottom of her eyes, Aoi's tears.

Linai got a reply, she can let go and do it. In just one or two days, she also hates this family to death.

She clasped her hands together and solemnly bowed to Keiko's tombstone.

"Got you."

Rina imagined that the Urakami family would find out that she had escaped soon, and then come here to look for her. After all, Rina asked only those two places.

But why is it this thick, long, stupid snake?

She thought it had let her go, but it ran into it in this cemetery.

Putting it under the sun, the shape of this curse spirit became clearer: its body was bent and flexible like a snake, its densely jointed limbs were on the tombstone, and its slender neck slowly poked its head out from behind Keiko's tombstone. Come out, to put it bluntly, like a centipede with a long neck.

Rina found herself trembling slightly again.

Suddenly she caught something, and she said in her heart: "Kui, is this the big snake you saw in your aunt's room?"

It turned out that Aoi was not afraid of the curse spirit at first, but remembered that it was the curse spirit closely related to her aunt's death.

That's right, how could a high-density witch who slays demons be afraid of curse spirits?

As long as you find a way to catch it, you can get close to the cause of Aunt Kui's death.

See, it's not that difficult.

Linai still maintained her bowing posture with her palms folded, and she was thinking about how to deal with this curse spirit in her mind.

Why is it staring at Aoi?

She obviously felt that she couldn't see it last time, why did it come again?

Is it because the brain capacity is not enough and only one day's memory...?

"Where...where?" The long-necked centipede spoke again.

where is what

Linai straightened up slowly, as before, as if she couldn't see the curse spirit at all.

"Where...where?" The voice was harsh, like rusted sawtooth cutting through metal again.

The compass and talisman were taken away by Urakami's maids long after the exorcism ceremony was over, and Rina didn't know whether this body was strong enough to fight head-on.

She can't easily fight without being prepared.

The long-necked centipede moved, and it seemed like a seamless coincidence. At the same moment as the attack, Linai bent down and straightened the flowers in front of the tombstone.

The centipede flinched, and tilted its head like last time: "Huh? Really... can't see?"

Rina thinks this curse spirit is not very smart...

She suddenly felt that the curse spirit with black lines on her face was not bad, at least she knew that she was an ordinary person and let her go.

If there is another attack, she can't pretend and can only run away.

Rina took a step back, as if turning around to leave.

The centipede didn't seem to let it go so easily this time, it turned its head left and right, as if it was about to strike again.

A gust of wind passed by, and the moment Rina blinked, the centipede stopped.

In just 0.1 second, when she opened her eyes again, the thick and long centipede curse spirit shattered apart, as if being cut by a sharp and precise kitchen knife, each segment of the body with a pair of joints was neatly severed, scattered in the air and All fell to the ground.

Lina's face was expressionless, but a salmon on a sticky board appeared in her mind, which was divided into pieces in the blink of an eye, and the last piece was dropped in front of the guests waiting to be eaten.

No matter who did it, with this sword technique alone, Rina cannot easily fight against it.

As if everything had nothing to do with her, Linai turned around - the curse spirit with black lines on her face that had flashed in her mind a few seconds ago was standing in front of her casually at this moment.

There is only one sentence in Linai's heart: she is really good at knife skills, and she wants to learn it too.
