Realm of Myths and Legends Chapter 1309: A Partial Success?

Ravi stood to his feet and said, "Holy Saintess, we must depart from this place soon. Although it was only for a brief moment, you released your true divine power. It will not be long before our position is discovered."

"I am aware. However, it could not be helped. If Sir Ravi had made a move here, I fear it would have been too drawn out and attracted even more unwanted attention. Since it was the easiest way to resolve things, so the price is worth the outcome. Though, before we depart, there is something I would like to discuss with the Supreme Elder of the Fourth Pavilion." Lucilla said as she turned her attention toward Izroth.

She then continued, "I sense a great curse envelops you that does not seem unrelated to the foul creature I purified before your arrival. If not the presence of that curse, I would have assumed that you were an accomplice coming to their aid. Though, it would seem that we share a common foe."

Back when Izroth served the arm of Nekrostalmenos, the Envoy of The Netherworld, he was inflicted with a powerful curse. There were those who attempted to remove the curse; however, since the Envoy of The Netherworld used his own lifeforce as the source of the curse, it could not be broken unless he was vanquished.

"I believe I was guided to this place for a reason by the brightest light. At first, I thought it was to deal with those from the Undying Desolate Valley who had been led astray. However, perhaps it is fate that has led out paths to cross on this day. Since it is fate that has guided me this far, I would like to try removing the curse that plagues you before I depart." Lucilla said as she approached Izroth and stopped a couple of steps in front of him.

If the Envoy of The Netherworld knew Izroth’s thoughts, he would have coughed up blood from anger. Most people would jump at the chance to potentially have such a frightening curse removed. However, Izroth saw its removal as something wasteful and a loss of opportunity!

"Since the Holy Saintess is offering, I will not reject your kindness." Izroth responded in a carefree manner.

Lucilla gave a small nod. She then clasped her hands together and closed her eyes. She began to quietly chant as a brilliant golden light enveloped her and Izroth.

At the same time, Izroth carefully observed Lucilla’s actions and activated Skill Analysis from Master of Skills.

Lucilla’s eyes shot open as she unclasped her hands and said gently, "Radiant Holy Light of Purification."

Izroth immediately felt an indescribable warmth encompass his entire body as a stream of system alerts sounded.

〈System Alert: The passive skill «Skill Analysis» has been activated.〉

〈System Alert: Beginning analysis of the skill «Radiant Holy Light of Purification».〉

〈System Alert: «Curse of The Netherworld» has resisted the skill «Radiant Holy Light of Purification».〉

〈System Alert: «Curse of The Netherworld» has changed to «Curse of The Netherworld(Holy Weakened)».〉

As the golden light faded and the surroundings returned to normal, Izroth took a moment to glimpse over the Curse of The Netherworld.

Izroth learned when he used Skill Analysis on Azalea’s SSS-ranked Dance of Phantoms and other experiences, that the amount of time a skill took to process depended on several factors. The most important of which seemed to be the skill’s rank and Izroth’s personal understanding and experience with said skill.
