No wonder Leanna refused. This curse was truly twisted beyond measure, and indeed unsolvable.
The dragon race was not to be underestimated; even after death, their souls did not completely dissipate.
Therefore, after the entire dragon race was wiped out, the grudges from their deaths all concentrated on Leanna, because she was the mastermind behind it all.
She was also the one who acquired a large number of dragon corpses and treasures.
So, if not on her, who else would they gather on?
Thus, the curse was formed.
It could not be lifted, nor could it be easily sealed.
Even if sealed, the evil energy it released periodically would drive a person mad.
This was why Chiyo needed to vent this evil energy occasionally, even coming to Kaito to help suppress her, allowing her berserk state to wildly release the evil energy.
It was like...
The Black Mud of the Holy Grail War, the [All the World's Evils].
Yeah, that was a more fitting analogy; the similarity was really high.
"Her suffering a fate worse than death has nothing to do with me. In fact, it would be better to send her back to human territory. Let those humans deal with the headache!"
Indeed, Leanna couldn't be killed. Killing her would make the situation even more chaotic. The curse released would also be passed on to others, repeating the cycle endlessly.
Because it was unsolvable, humanity had to bear the cost of the genocide.
And if Leanna didn't die, only she would bear the pain. Then, periodically, she would go berserk and vent the evil energy inside her.
"As you wish. They made the mistake themselves, let them bear the consequences."
Kaito began to use all the magical knowledge he had copied from Leanna, converting it into magic he could use. A golden magic circle appeared beneath his feet.
But then, this magic circle transformed into a dragon crest. As the incantation changed, the dragon crest turned dark and terrifying.
"Stand on it."
"Okay."
Chiyo stood at the other center of the magic circle. Kaito then began to completely strip away the curse within her soul.
A curse formed from the souls of countless dragons, enough to make anyone's sanity value plummet.
It was so disgusting. The occasional emergence of hideous, ferocious dragon heads was also terrifying.
After frowning a few times, Kaito transferred it into Leanna's body, making her relive the pain she had once endured, and then the Chains of Heaven released her.
"Here, let me solidify it for you."
The Golden Sword pierced into Leanna's body, then merged into her interior.
Thus, Leanna's magical abilities were completely sealed. She could no longer transfer it to others and had to bear it herself.
As long as Kaito lived, this Golden Sword would not disappear, nor could it be easily found and pulled out.
"Damn it, aaaaah!!!"
Leanna screamed in agony, filled with resentment.
But for now, it was manageable. The curse hadn't yet accumulated much evil energy like the All the World's Evils, so it hadn't reached the point of making her life worse than death.
But what the future held was unknown.
In fact, Kaito had another solution: take the curse outside the universe, or to another world.
That way, the dragon souls couldn't gather evil energy, and the curse would become meaningless.
But...
Why would he do that?
Anyway, they were the ones who did it. Shouldn't they bear the cost themselves?
The hatred of a wiped-out race—let the humans of this world experience it.
"Bye-bye. I hope you live a relaxed and happy life~"
Leanna was taken away by a spatial gate. When her figure reappeared, it was in the most prosperous town, crashing down from the sky onto the ground.
Naturally, Leanna's appearance caused a huge stir. She was the legendary, greatest, and strongest mage who had been hidden away for so long!
Now that she reappeared, did it signal that she would once again raise a Hero?
"Kaito-nii, thank you. I won't be troubled by those disgusting things anymore."
Relieved of a heavy burden, Chiyo clung to Kaito again. Her mood had never been so smooth.
"No need for thanks. I gained a lot of magical knowledge because of this."
This was a big win for Kaito too. Many of Leanna's magics could help him, especially since Kaito could refine and enhance them to become even stronger!
Just like the earlier beam cannon, Kaito could develop it into a star-destroying cannon.
The magical consumption would be high, but as long as it looked cool, that was fine. He had plenty of magic power anyway, and it regenerated quickly. Firing off a few dozen for fun was doable.
But that magic that could change a person's gender...
Sigh... forget it. Better to seal that one away completely.
There was magic that could make a person younger or older, which was pretty nice.
However, even that magic had limits. If someone was too old, they couldn't be made too young. Leanna was a prime example. No matter how strong her magic was, she couldn't become as young as Chiyo.
But well...
That was her.
If Kaito himself used it, maybe he really could make people younger, even turn them into lolis!
Well...
He suddenly had a bold idea!
"Hmm~ Kaito, is everything done?"
Mamako also arrived. Seeing Chiyo clinging to Kaito, she didn't get jealous or angry. Instead, she clung to Kaito on the other side just like her daughter.
She held Kaito's other arm with both hands and smiled happily.
"Everything's done. But that mage might be having a rough time."
After briefly explaining Leanna's situation, Mamako didn't say much. Saying it was deserved, she then pulled Kaito to explore other places.
Now that they were out in the wilderness, why not have a fun picnic?
Conveniently, Mamako knew a place with a great environment and lots of slimes~
Slimes in this world were truly harmless and adorable creatures.
"Speaking of which, Mom, and Kaito-nii, if you're willing, would you like to visit the place where I originally lived?"
"Hmm? The place Chiyo used to live?"
Mamako tilted her head and asked, suddenly feeling a bit nervous.
Chiyo was the Demon God of Lust, and also the Queen of Succubi...
If that was where she lived, wouldn't it be full of succubi?
If Kaito went, wouldn't he...
