I was accidentally injured by God and I just want to be an ordinary person

As Oz pulled downwards, the Seal of Sloth on the crown suddenly emitted a pale yellow light. The moment it touched Iris, Iris, who had already risen to a height of ten meters, fell straight to the ground as if hit by an air pestle.

"Tsk, gravity magic, huh? 'Floating Technique'."

The force of gravity was somewhat offset, and Iris stood firm at the moment of falling to the ground, but Oz's attack did not end there.

A yellow beam of light that occupies most of the field of vision.

As if to break through the constraints of the sky, the strong light tore apart all the clouds, but unlike the violent magic fluctuations imagined, the magic emanating from Oz was rhythmically and steadily. The elements representing the earth in the air rushed towards Oz as if they were worshipping their king, so that Iris could not even use magic with earth attributes.

Elise frowned.

Oz must be planning to use some powerful magic next. Before he could confirm the true identity, it was much wiser to avoid it rather than face it head-on. However, since the gravity magic had not yet dissipated, he no longer had the opportunity to escape using flight magic. In that case—

Iris grabbed the ruby ​​necklace around her neck and crushed it with force.

"Teleport"

The strong blue light gradually enveloped Iris, but at the same time, Oz also finished preparing to seal the magic.

"Pay the price for your arrogance—the Curse of Sloth."

Chapter 63: Liberation! Archangel's Kiss

When the pillar of light appeared in the town, Ella rushed to the location of Iris and Angeline in the north district as quickly as possible. She was accompanied by Camisia, who was just in case, and Mitis, who was very familiar with the Seal of Original Sin.

"Can you go a little faster, Mitis?"

Ella looked up at Mitis who was flying over the city with her. The pillar of light in the sky had long disappeared, leaving only layers of thin clouds that had been broken through.

"This is already the fastest speed. Can't Ella use detection magic to search?"

"Hmm."

Ella immediately opened the terrain search function, but because her heart was filled with anxiety, she forgot that she could use the terrain search function for a moment.

Glancing quickly towards the north area, Ella searched directly for Iris's light spot—her expression suddenly changed, and she reached out to grab Mitis's hand.

"Ella? What are you going to do?"

"Let's use the quickest method."

Nodding solemnly to Mitis and Camisia, a faint white light appeared on Ella's body. After about a second, Ella appeared in Mitis's hands. She had transformed into Entalosviel with pure white wings and white hair tied into twin ponytails. Because she could choose her own clothes during the character switching process, Ella directly turned into Entalosviel.

Upon seeing this, Mitis frowned and smacked her lips.

"Tsk, has it become necessary to use Fii's identity?"

"Mitis, hold on to me."

"Um."

"Camisia!"

"Yes, my lady."

After shouting to Camisia who was accompanying her, Ella grabbed the hand she extended.

"'Group Short-Range Teleport'."

Without even experiencing the feeling of floating, the three people who were originally flying appeared directly above the residence where Angeline was originally located. However, due to the battle, the nearby houses had been reduced to ruins, and the ground was full of rubble and broken beams. Only the place where the courtyard should have been still retained its original appearance.

Nearly ten slimes were repairing Kumi fragments gathered in an open space of less than 20 square meters. After a quick glance, Ella fixed her eyes on the stone table in the corner of the courtyard. Iris, wearing a magic robe, was lying motionless on it.

"So these are the Kumi..."

With anger burning in her purple eyes, Ella locked onto the slimes one by one in the terrain search and slowly reached down.

"Princess, leave it to me."

“Ella…”

Before Ella could cast her spell, Camisia stopped Ella, jumped down first, and restrained the slime with magic items, while Mitis murmured in a worried tone.

"Go down first."

After taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling, Ella used "teleportation" to land on the ground with Mitis, and without any hesitation, walked straight towards Iris.

Iris, sitting on the stone bench with her upper body lying on the stone table, seemed to have lost her life. She couldn't even breathe. But it could be seen that Iris had no external injuries and her clothes were so neat as if she had never experienced a battle. However, anyone could notice the abnormality of Iris at this moment. If I had to describe it, it could be said that Iris's time was stopped at this moment. Her HP and MP were at normal levels, but she was neither breathing nor responding to external stimuli.

For a moment, Ella didn't even dare to touch Iris - she was afraid that Iris would not answer her. Although the terrain search showed that Iris was not dead, being unable to respond to others was no different from death.

The princess with a bad temper was quietly lying on the stone table to rest. This was originally a scene that gave people endless beautiful imaginations, but for Ella and Mitis now, there was only a cruelty that was so heavy that they could not speak.

"...What happened to Iris?"

Like Ella, Mitis didn't dare to touch Iris. She looked at Ella with worry and caution.

"[Sloth Curse]... Does Mitis know about this state?"

“You actually used the Sloth Curse? That Oz guy—”

Mitis clenched her teeth and continued to add.

"This is one of Sloth's final spells, using the seal of the earth to seal a person. Sloth is the most proficient in sealing techniques among all of us, and the 'Sloth Curse' is the most time-sensitive of all seals. Once struck, both the body and consciousness will be frozen at the moment of the seal, a seal that is infinitely close to time magic. Pride even said that it is not so much a seal as it is a permanent abnormal state. As long as the earth element exists, the seal will not disappear due to energy depletion... If I were an elemental holy spirit, I might be able to break the seal, but I can only control the mind..."

As if she had caused all this, Mitis lowered her head guiltily, but Ella looked relieved, the anger in her eyes dissipated a lot, and she patted Mitis's shoulder lightly.

"I understand. I'm sorry for making such a face that made Mitis worried."

Even if Iris really disappeared from this world, he could use more than ten kinds of magic to try to bring her back, not to mention the many props in "F.Wing" and even the abnormal large resurrection point like the "Resurrection Point Stele". Even if none of them worked, he only needed to find Pope Tria of the Enstarnit Church to achieve resurrection.

"But even if Ella is powerful in this state, removing the 'Sloth Curse', which represents the pinnacle of sealing techniques, would be difficult... Ah, if someone skilled in magical spells holds the seals of 'Wrath', 'Gluttony', and 'Greed', perhaps they could try to expel the earth element."

"Mitis, calm down. There's a simpler solution than that—step back a little."

"Ella? That's the Seal of Sloth."

"Lord Mitis, leave it to the princess."

Kamisia, who had already dealt with the slime, walked behind Mitis and retreated with Mitis.

After turning around and giving Mitis and Camisia a look that said "It's okay", Ella focused all her attention on Iris, took a step forward, and walked behind Iris.

"If I can expel the earth element, can I break the seal? And since the seal appears as an abnormal state in the status bar, then... I should be able to use that magic."

Taking a deep breath, Ella bent down, put her hands through Iris's armpits, and with a little force on one hand, she turned Iris into a princess hug with her face facing her sideways. Iris was holding the fragments of the ruby ​​necklace in her hand, which must have been sealed at the moment before the teleportation started, so the teleportation failed. Ella put the fragments of the ruby ​​into Iris's pocket one by one.

Perhaps due to her maturity, Iris was slightly heavier than Ruthie, but even without using the "strength boost", she could easily pick up Iris. Her arms felt unusually soft. Although she was in a sealed state, Iris's body still retained some warmth. Due to the half-hug posture, the lemon scent from her body also entered her nose. Normally, this slightly irritating smell would make her feel uncomfortable, but now she just felt at ease.

Thinking of what would happen next, Ella looked at Iris's beautiful profile. It was a face as dazzling as the sun. Even those who were absolutely confident in themselves would feel ashamed of their beauty when standing in front of Iris. It was really hard to imagine how she had the courage to talk to Iris on the same level. The more she thought about it, the angrier Ella became about Iris's current silence as if she had lost her life. If Oz had not used the seal but had killed her, she would have gone berserk and blown up Oz and the entire castle together. This dark thought emerged in Ella's heart.

"Hmm, you usually like to play tricks on people, but you also have moments like this... Well, as revenge, even if you do something excessive, there's no reason to ask me for compensation..."

Swallowing a mouthful of non-existent saliva, Ella half-knelt down, holding Iris's head with one hand and placing the other hand on Iris's knees, recalling the magic that could eliminate all negative effects and restore the user to the best condition.

Archangel's Kiss

Without any warning, as if a second sun had appeared on the earth, the dazzling sunlight enveloped Ella and Iris. Then, another pair of golden wings that seemed to materialize overlapped on the white wings spread out behind Ella. After the ten-meter-long wings were spread to the extreme, as if a switch was triggered, they quickly folded in at a speed that was difficult to capture with the naked eye, wrapping Ella and Iris.

At the same time, Ella slowly and unwaveringly pressed her cherry lips against Iris's forehead. As if this kiss consumed all her energy, the golden wings instantly turned into particles of light and flowed into Iris's body.

[While clearing away negative effects, restoring the body to a pure state, with all elements expelled, the "Sloth Curse" that uses the earth element to support the seal will naturally be useless.]

Thinking this, Ella looked at Iris's status bar. Just as she had expected, the effects of the "Sloth Curse" had disappeared.

Her heart finally relaxed, and Ella couldn't help feeling as if all her strength had been drained away. However, she soon realized another problem. She looked at Iris's forehead, whom she had just kissed, with a guilty conscience, and immediately reached out to wipe it, trying to destroy the evidence. Although she didn't have the habit of painting her lips red, there was no guarantee that Iris would detect it with some strange magic props.

After doing all this, Ella picked up Iris and turned to walk towards Camisia.

"It's over. You'll wake up soon."

"Are we going back next?"

Camisia first asked Ella for her opinion.

"Well, Camisia and Mitis, go back first. I have other things to do."

"I request your company."

"No, don't worry, Camisia. I won't do anything excessive."

"……yes."

Although there was hesitation in her purple eyes, Camisia still agreed to Ella's request.

"Is it really...has the seal been lifted? It only took less than two minutes?"

Compared to Camisia's worry, Mitis standing next to her was still immersed in shock, with her eyes wide open and a look of disbelief.

Ella first nodded to Mitis, then patted Mitis's head. In the state of Entalosphiel, she was always floating one foot away from the ground, so she was slightly higher than Mitis.

"Yes, it's been lifted. Didn't Mitis know about this a long time ago? In this state, I can even use time magic, so lifting the seal is a piece of cake."

"What a perverted ability... Wait, then why don't you use this state all the time? Is there a time limit and a limit on the number of times it can be used?"

"Well, this is a secret."

After giving Mitis a very natural smile, Ella waved to Mitis and Camisia, who was holding Iris in her arms.

"Well then, I'll go to the castle and be right back."

"Be careful not to get sealed."

"Yes."

After receiving the two's response, Ella took out the long-unused large weapon "Judgment Sun Wheel" from the storage, and under the "Hermes Wings" and "High-level Acceleration" state, rushed towards the castle like a meteor.

◇

Perhaps because of the fast flying speed, Ella even felt a burning sensation on her skin. In order to avoid the pain and prevent her clothes from being burned, Ella applied a layer of barrier on her body surface, then opened the terrain search and locked her target on Oz.

"On the third floor of the castle, you're with Angelina right now. There's no one else in the room or the nearby corridors. Yeah, that's perfect."

The castle, originally just a black dot, rapidly enlarged in the field of vision. In just a few seconds, Ella arrived in front of the castle. Unlike the previous times when she directly used "complete concealment" and "short-distance teleportation" to enter the castle, Ella chose to force her way in.

The fast-moving body was like a meteor, slamming directly into the outer wall of the third floor of the castle without mercy. Because of the barrier protection, Ella was now no different from a cannonball - in order to prevent the impact from accidentally injuring Angelini inside, Ella cast the defensive magic of "Crystal Wall" next to Angelini in advance.

boom!

The entire castle trembled for a moment. Like thin wooden boards, the gray walls did not provide any barrier. Bricks and stones flew everywhere along with dust. In order to prevent stones from falling and accidentally injuring other people, Ella used space magic to create a hole in the space below, and all the falling stones disappeared into the hole.

And all this took less than a second.

Because the wall was destroyed, Ella also came to the room on the third floor. Due to the collision just now, the room was in a mess, the air was filled with dust that blocked the vision, broken bricks and overturned decorations were everywhere, and even the chandelier on the ceiling was smashed to the ground.

Ella first checked Angeline's safety. Thanks to the magic of the "Crystal Wall", she was not hurt at all. As for Oz on the other side, he was not damaged due to his strong body.

Ignoring Oz, Ella walked straight towards Angelique who was surrounded by crystals.

"Who?"

As expected, Oz took out a spear from the storage item and stabbed Ella with it while questioning her. Unlike when he faced Iris just now, in Oz's eyes, Ella was someone who could only be defeated by taking out a weapon - no, it should be said that she was an opponent who had a slight chance of winning only after taking out a weapon.

"I don't have time to talk to you."

Thinking of how Oz had sealed Iris, Ella frowned and casually waved the terrifyingly huge "Judgment Sun Wheel", knocking Oz and his broken spear into the wall.

But Oz didn't give up.

"Don't underestimate me!"

Yellow light filled the room like a wave. Sensing the unusual energy fluctuations, Ella turned her head slightly to look at Oz, who raised one hand. The eye-shaped Seal of Sloth on the crown was open.

"Is this the Seal of Sloth?... The third of the Seven Deadly Sins, the Earth Spirit, also attacked Iris... No, if it's Kumi, she'll recover quickly."

Recalling the image of Iris lying motionless on the stone table, Ella narrowed her eyes slightly, her whole body glowed with golden light, and her hand holding the Sun of Judgment tightened.

『High-level strength enhancement』

At the same time, a yellow light shone from Oz's body—a sign of the overly dense concentration of earth elements—and he quickly raised his hand towards Ella.

"Earth's Grasp."

Although they were clearly inside the castle, Ella's feet suddenly surged with semi-liquid crystals that reflected sunlight. These flowing crystals seemed to have gained life and condensed into a giant palm with a width of ten meters. After locking onto Ella, it closed mercilessly, trapping Ella inside.

This was a tremendous force that could even crush city walls. In Oz's eyes, Ella's arrogant behavior of not dodging undoubtedly determined her death.

but--

Looking at the darkening vision and the rapidly shrinking space, Ella simply swung the Sun of Judgment over her shoulder. You know, when she was in the underground tower city of Semirabi before, she used the Sun of Judgment that had been blessed with "high-level power enhancement" and "holy pestle attack", and even the Seal of Wrath could be defeated with one blow, not to mention this magic called "Grip of the Earth", which had just touched the threshold of the fifth level.

"Regret your unauthorized use of the Seal of Original Sin."
