Ophelia Vars. She is currently in a state of confusion. She screams in pain as she swings her sword aimlessly. Either she's seeing something or she's just doing it because she's in so much pain that she can't think straight. Just screaming and swinging her sword. Not even a word other than the scream
"Ophelia!" [Amleth]
"Snap out of it!" [Khamisah]
"Amleth... Khamisah..." [Ophelia]
"Good! The Holy Grail spell of the Goddess' favorite daughter is working!" [Merlin]
"Sister Khamisah! Aunt Amleth! I'm going to banish THE THING again, you two, please... Aah..." [Diana]
Ophelia seems to be regaining consciousness for a bit, but the curse on her body is far too much for one person to handle. I'm not sure if it's her own blind attack or the curse or THE THING that's making her do this, but
"That hurt..." [Diana]
"Damn it!" [Khamisah]
Sister Khamisah, seeing that I was stabbed by Ophelia, quickly punches Ophelia in the face so hard that Ophelia is actually sent flying into the wall. It's through her reflex as she's too angry to think straight, but I think she's holding back, still, it broke the barrier that contained the curse, and as such
"Hahahahahahahaha. Freedom... And Merlin, you wretched witch" [?Ophelia].
"To be honest, other than the Devil King, I couldn't even be bothered to remember every single devil serving under him, and you're no exception, because I'm going to kill you again!" [Merlin]
"We should join them and..." [Oreforged]
"Not yet!" [Saintess Rumia]
"Huh!?" [Dana]
"This may not be a good thing, but if you interfere now and defeat it, the cycle of the curse of this land will just continue to the next generation, and as such... THE THING wanted to revive that curse in the form of the devil who cast it. If possible..." [Saintess Rumia]
"But!" [Dana]
"Then do it. If it's the next generation, it will be my two daughters, and as such, I would not allow it. My dear people, Master Merlin and Her Holiness, please, let us end this once and for all!" [Amleth]
As I try to close my wound with Jean's help, I hear everything that's going on. It's hard to concentrate when you're in pain, bleeding, and trying to help banish THE THING and the curse at the same time.
"Stay strong. I'll help in healing you" [Jean]
"Yes..." [Diana]
The healing fairy Shifa is helping by trying to speed up my healing. I'm glad she's always there to help me. She may not like it when I heal others with the bare minimum of knowledge, but when it comes to my safety and health, she will do anything for me.
While Sister Khamisah and Aunt Amleth do their best to keep Ophelia confined to the magic circle, the others are ready to step in at a moment's notice. If it weren't for Saintess Rumia preventing them from intervening, they would surely do so.
"Please stay still! Ophelia! Listen to me!" [Amleth]
"You cursed devil!" [Khamisah]
"Let me kill you with her body! That way, the curse will be firmly rooted in her, and I will take what is rightfully mine, from the promise made by her ancestors!" [? Ophelia]
The barrier is repaired and the ritual to lift the curse continues. Aunt Amleth, with her blessing, strengthens Maleficent's spell to ensure that the stasis of the curse remains. Sister Khamisah, even with her title as the strongest adventurer, finds it difficult to control Ophelia from running amok without hurting her too much.
"Miss Teliara! Ms. JOATMON! Now!" [Saintess Rumia]
"On it!" [Teliara, JOATMON]
"Teacher!" [Saintess Rumia]
"I will!" [Merlin]
At her signal, Teliara and JOATMON unleash a final spell to bind Ophelia along with the curse. It's a strong curse, but with their knowledge and power they are able to do it, and as for Master Merlin, she activates the mirror and with it
"GAHHHH! GAHHHHHH!" [? Ophelia]
"It works!" [Dana]
"Please hold still! Ophelia! Just a little more... Just a little more..." [Amleth]
"You can do it. We believe in you. You are strong and would not lose to a mere curse!" [Khamisah]
With their four powers combined, they successfully removed the curse from Ophelia. With the curse removed from her body, Ophelia quickly lost consciousness. Her breathing was ragged. She looks even worse than I do.
"Now for the removal of THE THING. Diana, just rest and leave it to me!" [Saintess Rumia]
"I... I will... Sorry" [Diana]
"It's okay. Without you, this whole process wouldn't be..." [Jean]
"GAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!" [?]
"What is it now!?" [Nar]
"The curse... THE THING has successfully resurrected the devil that cursed Amleth!" [Merlin]
This is definitely not good news.
