Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival [WN] - Chapter 191.1

The End of a Wish 4

“Camille-sama!”

Camille, stabbed in the stomach, collapsed, spitting blood, and Izelle’s screams echoed through the dungeon as Jesha and Kadori readied their weapons, and Doehill and the others, who were far away, braced themselves against the strange “deadly” presence.

“Aishe!!!”

Master, who was kneeling after being hit by a poisonous needle, shouted when she saw who was behind Camille.

Aishe? Her eyes were bright red, as if bloodshot, and she was snarling as if she were delirious, her eyes tinged with hatred toward Master and me.

There was a strange magic element surrounding Aishe’s whole body… Master noticed it as well.

“You, you can’t be…”

“Aaah!!!”

Aishe suddenly screamed and raised her broken sword again to the fallen Camille, as if enduring something.

“Ah!!!”

*Gakkin!!! 

I jumped out of position, and the blade of my boot, which had been brought out at full speed, clashed with the broken sword, sending sparks flying.

“You aaaaah!!!!”

“!!!”

Although I caught the sword in a half-way down position, Aishe flung me away with only the strength of her one arm.

While I was flung away, I changed my stance by kicking in the air and brought down my Heavy Type Pendulum, but Aishe caught it with one hand and further waved her broken sword at me.

Ginn!!!! 

“Kuh!!!”

I quickly caught it with my dagger, but I was blown away again by its power, which was different from before.

However, I was able to pull Aishe away from Camille. Turning only my gaze to Kadori, he instantly understood and moved to retrieve Camille.

Aishe’s arm, which had been broken by the Heavy Pendulum, regenerated in the blink of an eye. Not only that, but from around Aishe’s waist, countless poisonous needles, which she had been hit with earlier, were released.

[Gaaaaaah!]

Nero’s [Slash and Stab Resistance], which had intervened between me and Aishe, repelled the needles, and a sharp whip-like tentacle made Aishe, who had been hit by the sword, retreat.

I did not remember Aishe using needles in the fight, and it should have been that old man – Elgrim – who was using the needles.

“Human girl! She’s using curse magic!”

The voice of the sorcerer Charlemagne echoed from behind. She did have the same color of magical element from what I remembered, but she was not a sorcerer. So, how did Aishe, who was not a sorcerer, use curse magic? It resembles the strengthening spells used by the demon clan, but was it implanted in her body from the beginning?

I thought it was Elgrim who did it, but that guess was denied by Aishe herself.

Behind Aishe’s waist…in the area where the poison needle had been thrown earlier, a familiar “head” was hanging.

“Elgrim…”

The head in Aishe’s hand was Elgrim, who had disappeared before.

Was Elgrim killed by Aishe? But why did she kill Elgrim?

Considering what had happened so far, it did not seem that Aishe and the magic clan were enemies, despite this time being a [Selection Ceremony], which became a killing contest.

But with Elgrim’s head, Aishe’s situation, and the “Curse Magic” involved, using my master’s teachings and that woman’s “knowledge”, I came up with a hypothesis.

“…Insect Venom Curse?”
