Chapter 306: D108. Ode to the Wind of Freedom_2
“However, what you all spoke of regarding the… ntal state, what exactly is wrong with it?”
Even though she had lived for quite so ti and understood a good amount of magic, she was not very knowledgeable about spiritual magic and curses.
As the White Snake asked, the soldiers around, all fully alert, quietly pricked up their ears.
After witnessing the fall of the Corrupted Phoenix, experiencing the baptism of Unpaid Love, and seeing the Sergeant’s resurrection, their respect for the Hero had beco deeply ingrained in their hearts.
Although not all of them were under the Church, the cruising bishop’s respectful title for the Hero, “Lady Saintess,” had invisibly beco their symbolic reference for her.
“Previously, the bishop also ntioned that this curse isn’t destructive, aning the Hero’s ntal state wasn’t damaged and she wouldn’t lose the ability to think. Nor is it distortionary, so her personality won’t change because of it.”
The military mage’s words made the White Snake and the surrounding soldiers breathe a sigh of relief.
“However, Miss Hero, at present, once she has a thought, will act upon it imdiately without considering the consequences.
“This is sothing the Sergeant might have experienced similarly.”
The Sergeant nodded.
He could focus his consciousness to gain more destructive power, which was an extre of martial arts and the strength he had cultivated. Correspondingly, when he drew his sword, he would eliminate all distractions, with no possibility of sheathing it again, even if a trap or other plot lay ahead. He wouldn’t stop or hesitate mid-action.
Actions were quicker than thoughts.
“And now the Hero basically is in a similar state,” the military mage continued to explain. “For example, when she feels happy, she will smile directly, not caring if it’s a serious occasion.”
The military mage carefully chose his words, withholding crude descriptions out of care for the Holy Maiden, striving to express with a gentlemanly attitude.
“Like now, even though the Ancient Heroic Spirit just left, she neither cried nor shed tears, instead falling silent. This shows she didn’t feel excessively sorrowful, but rather happier for helping fulfill their wish, and a bit lonely because of the separation.”
The military mage briefly described what it ant to wear one’s emotions on one’s face.
“In the absence of external stimuli, she mostly stays in this state of minimal reaction, since she won’t proactively think unless she feels hungry or has other needs. In other words, we just need to watch over her as we are now.”
The military mage’s tone gradually turned serious.
“Though it may seem like there isn’t much of a problem, upon returning to a normal environnt, it won’t be that simple. The tricky part of this curse is its unpredictable consequences.
“Most of the ti, it may only cause minor inconveniences in daily life. But sotis, when we despise soone, even with a murderous intent, most people will choose to endure due to legal and rational constraints. Yet, if the curse acts up, once such murderous intent arises, the Hero might take action without hesitation, delivering a fatal blow.”
The soldiers looked at each other, expressions instantly tense.
“Even if she’s inherently kind and carries little malice towards others, there could be dangerous or suppressed thoughts that reality has held back from being realized, for example—”

“—Hmm?”
Before the military mage could continue, a gust of hot wind suddenly blew in, interrupting him.
He, along with the Sergeant and the cruising bishop, turned surprised to see the Hero suddenly enveloped in vivid golden-red flas.
She turned her head, her previously indifferent face blooming into a radiant smile, dreamlike under the flas, rendering everyone montarily dazed.
Then the Hero, with eyes shining, nodded in thanks to the military mage.
“I know what to do now, thank you!”

After handing over the Martial Princess’s long blade, regarded as a relic, to the White Snake and watching her solemnly encase it in ice, the Hero fell into deep contemplation.
She pondered what she was thinking about.
It truly was a profound question.
Whenever a thought arose, it seed as though it fell into a bottomless abyss, vanishing without a trace, without even a ripple, erased by the infinite descent and thus forgot what it was.
Everything seed caught in a never-ending loop, leaving the Hero standing still as if frozen.
Yet she had to do sothing.
People must do sothing.
Thus, an almost ultimate answer surfaced in the Hero’s heart.
—Go kill Goblins.
