🍁Nine Ancient Obelisks

“As Camistella already mentioned, we managed to find out that he is going to perform some kind of ritual near the Obelisk of Fire,” replies to Erike and Gense. “We cannot enlist the support of anyone from the powerful figures in this matter. Even if someone believes us, the Knight’s influence will not allow him to violate his secret and reveal the plans. We have already tried to verify this, but it didn’t work out. What are we going to do? Meet him on the spot and prevent him from doing what he plans. My personal theory is that after the soul split, he should become a slightly less terrible threat, and we also have a special talisman and cleansing spells. He is unlikely to make it to the trial, that’s true,” he adds after a moment of thought. “It sounds silly, but in such cases, I always think about an alternative. In a year, the curse will expire, the red spots on our bodies will spread from the skin to the internal organs, and we will all simply die. In the first case, at least there is a chance to fight this plague. That’s what I think.”

Shinobi looks intently into the eyes behind the glasses – for such a young face, they look unnaturally old.
- I see that you are not timid, Asmidul. Or is it the fear of death that drives you to desperate measures? Can you fight? He is clearly not a weakling,” he takes his hands off the katana and puts it on the table. “If, as you say, you need my help, I will provide it. On the condition that you reason with Linshi,” he says, not taking his eyes off the guy, and nods in a certain direction. “I am not going to listen to insults directed at me; this will end one way or another sooner or later, and none of them is to my liking. I will not demand an apology from her, I will even forget my grievances, and I would like to start with a clean slate. As for our patient... whether it is a curse or not, it doesn’t matter to me. He killed not only me but also my friends,” “and the only woman I loved.” “That’s why I wanted to find out from her what she knows, but apparently, they don’t deserve justice. So, I have a special surprise prepared exclusively for him. I don’t know for sure, but most likely... one of the friends is already dead, and I haven’t seen the second one for a long time, so we need reinforcements here.
