Curse Back: From Demonic Hollow to Heroic Spirit Summoning

In a small wooden house on the snowy mountain, Altria was being warmly entertained by a middle school boy.

"This is black tea, and here is some chocolate.

The boy's enthusiastic movements suddenly paused.

"Um, I forgot to ask you just now, what is your name?"

It seems that he hasn't seen anyone for a long time, and the boy speaks incoherently.

"Just call me Saber, what about you?"

Altria smiled at the boy, signaling him not to be nervous.

"Plug...Is Miss Seba really a foreigner?"

"It's Saber, a Briton."

Altria wrote a few letters on the table.

"Ah, sorry, I didn't mean it. My name is Xiao Mori Zhi, and I'm from Saitama Prefecture."

Xiao Mori Zhi's face was full of apologies. Since the accident, he ran away in fear and finally hid in this snowy mountain where few people go.

After that, Xiao Mori Zhi hadn't communicated with anyone for a long time, especially such a beautiful person.

"Saitama? It's not close to the mountain. Why are you here alone? Aren't your family members worried?"

Altria was a little surprised.

She could feel the power of the boy and knew that he must be a sorcerer.

As she spoke, Altria took out her cell phone and sent the name of Komori Satoshi to the assistant supervisor, asking him to check Komori Satoshi's information.

"I......"

Komori Satoshi was hesitant.

"It's okay if you don't want to talk about it."

Seeing the tension in Xiao Mori Zhi, Altria comforted him.

The warm words and gentle temperament made Xiao Mori Zhi's tension dissipate a lot.

It's okay to talk about it, even if you have to accept the punishment in the end, it's what you deserve.

"I hurt my classmates."

Having made up his mind, Xiao Mori Zhi lowered his head and told the secret he had kept for a long time.

"Why?"

Altria didn't think that a boy who looked so honest and shy would take the initiative to hurt others.

"They kept bullying me. I couldn't control myself that day......."

Komori Satoshi's voice became smaller and smaller, as if he was afraid that the girl in front of him would blame him.

"Didn’t you ask an adult for help?"

"The teacher asked me why they only bullied me and not others, and asked me to find my own problems and get along well with my classmates."

The teacher's formulaic smile that made him feel a little disgusted appeared in Xiao Mori Zhi's mind.

"My mother is not in good health, and I don't want her to worry."

Xiao Senzhi is from a single-parent family. His mother worked three jobs to give Xiao Senzhi a better study environment. After a serious illness, her health has not been good since then.

"Can you tell me what happened that day?"

Altria did not rush to make a judgment.

"That day, the three of them pushed me into an abandoned botanical garden, saying that they pushed me in because I liked flowers."

The memory of Xiao Mori Zhi emerged in his mind.

The three people who usually bullied him held his shoulders on the left and right and pushed him into the botanical garden with urban legends. They also said something like"Don't you like flowers? I heard that there are rare species here!"

"Then, we encountered a monster."

Said Xiao Senzhi, his body trembling slightly.

"The monster waved its vines and caught us like the man-eating tree in the legend. I was very scared at that time, and then I don’t know why a force suddenly surged in my body."

"Then I summoned a lot of thorns and strangled the man-eating tree, and then......"

Komori paused.

"Then they started shouting monsters and throwing stones at me. I was scared and angry at the time, so I attacked them."

After hearing this, Artoria also understood what happened to Satoshi Komori.

Satoshi Komori has the talent of a sorcerer and awakened his own technique between life and death.

Since sorcerers extract cursed power from negative emotions, Satoshi Komori at the time did not control his emotions and used his technique to attack several people who had been bullying him.

Those three people must have been threatened by the cursed spirits, so they could see the cursed spirits and Satoshi Komori using spells.

Ding.

The sound of the mobile phone rang, and Artoria received a photo sent back by the auxiliary supervisor.

The photo showed information about Satoshi Komori.

Because Satoshi Komori was a missing person in the cursed spirit incident, the Spell Directorate happened to have the investigation information of Satoshi Komori.

"Those three are fine."

""Eh?"

Xiao Mori Zhi made a surprised sound

"According to the information from the Spell Directorate, the three people only suffered minor injuries, one of them had lost too much blood and was seriously injured, but none of them were in danger of life."

"Is that so?"

A smile appeared on Xiao Mori Zhi's face.

He thought he had killed three people.

But if he killed them.

No, no.

Xiao Mori Zhi shook his head fiercely.

"Besides, I think you did the right thing."

Altria's sudden words made Xiao Mori Zhi look up in surprise.

"What's wrong? Resisting injustice and oppression is the right thing to do, isn't it?"

Snap.

Altria's words seemed to have opened some kind of shackles in Xiao Morizhi's body.

Xiao Morizhi, who had always been taught to be obedient and sensible, and not to solve problems violently, seemed to have undergone some kind of transformation at this moment.

Puff, puff.

There were footsteps outside, as if something was walking on the snow.

Altria's eyes fixed, and she stood up and looked outside.

Just as Altria was about to draw her sword, Xiao Morizhi suddenly stood in front of Altria.

"Danger, Miss Saber, step back."

A green shikigami covered in thorns appeared in front of Altria.

This was the technique that Xiao Mori Zhi awakened.

Shikigami: Thorn Beast

Moves: Thorn Entanglement, Thorn Strangling, Draining, Parasitic Seed, Deadly Bloom.

A three-meter-tall cursed spirit with a white body appeared outside the house. Xiao Mori Zhi commanded the thorn beast to release the thorns to tightly control the cursed spirit.

"Yes, that's it."

Altria looked at the cursed spirit and nodded.

Three days ago, the rescue team rescued a climber who was cursed by a spirit.

According to that climber, they were attacked by a bigfoot on the snowy mountain. The climber's father took the initiative to lead the bigfoot away to protect her, so she survived.

Seeing that Xiao Morizhi was about to give up, Altria stopped watching.

The invisible sword in her hand swung at the cursed spirit that was attacking Xiao Morizhi and getting closer to him.

"Eh?"

Xiao Mori Zhi looked at this scene in surprise.

At this moment, Altria was bathed in the sunshine of the early morning sun, and she looked so holy against the white snow around her.

"Listen up, Satoshi Komori."

"Ah, yes."

Xiao Morizhi subconsciously stood up straight, as if he was about to be lectured by the dean.

"It is a virtue to bravely resist injustice and stand up to danger, so stand up straight,

Xiao Mori Zhi, you are an excellent warrior."

A warm current surged in Xiao Mori Zhi's heart, and tears flowed unconsciously from the corners of his eyes.
