Chapter 204: Panties Aren''t What''s Important


    The sh of mana might not have caused any damage to the room, but Rosa was certain that Alice''s mana had engaged in a violent conflict inside Elodie''s mother''s body just now. Not only did she feel the mana fluctuations resulting from the sh, but she also saw ck mist erupting from Alice''s hand during the sh. Meanwhile, Rosa guessed that the ck mist was most likely the mana used to fuel the curse guing Elodie''s mother.


    After all, Alice was the Hero. There was no way her mana would look so dark and gloomy. So, Rosa concluded that the dark mana came from the taboo that Alice had suppressed.


    The only part that confused Rosa was Alice''s action of stripping Elodie''s mother''s panties. While Rosa was aware that Alice had a strange obsession with panties, was it necessary to satisfy her fetish in this crucial time and ce? How obsessed with panties was she that she found the need to strip her patient of her panties?


    <em>Maybe it''s to give herself a psychological boost</em>was the conclusion Rosa reached.


    No matter how much Rosa racked her mind, there was no way she would ever imagine that Alice could increase her strength by wielding panties. That was simply too far-fetched of an idea.


    While Rosa wasing up with a suitable exnation for Alice''s actions, Alice was also putting on the finishing touches of her treatment. Although she wasn''t particrly skilled at transforming body cells, she still managed to restore Elodie''s mother to her original appearance.


    Currently, the only sign showing that Elodie''s mother had been cursed was theyer of dead skin covering her body. This dead skin was the softened carapace that had previously grown on the woman''s body. Now that Alice had reversed the Sunset Bug Erosion''s effects, this dead skin should fall off naturally in a few days, and it wouldn''t have any effect on Elodie''s mother at all.


    Compared to the dead skin, what Elodie''s mother needed to pay more attention to was probably the somewhat massive amount of foreign mana inside her body. The woman would probably have to suffer for a few days before her body could fully digest such arge amount of mana.

    However, once Elodie''s mother fully digested this foreign mana, the volume of her mana pool should increase a little, and her physical fitness should be much better than before, which would be helpful to her in making a swift recovery.


    "Did you seed?"


    Rosa hurriedly walked over to look at Elodie''s mother''s condition when she saw Alice letting go of the woman''s hand. Then, she found that the woman had indeed recovered from the curse.


    Although there was still ayer of dead skin covering Elodie''s mother''s body, at least she wasn''t covered in ck carapace anymore. Her breathing had also be much more normal, and herplexion had started turning into a rosy red.


    "She should be fine after resting for a few days," Alice said and nodded, a drop of sweat rolling down her forehead. She might not have moved her body throughout the entire treatment, she had exhausted her mind quite significantly.


    While reversing the effects of the Sunset Bug Erosion, Alice was constantly using Psychokic Transcendence to assist her. Meanwhile, just like Kristine had mentioned, Psychokic Transcendence was much moreplex than the average taboo.


    Even while having her Mind and Control boosted by a pair of panties, Alice still found it somewhat challenging to operate the taboo. Afterpleting the treatment, her mind feltpletely drained.


    However, thanks to Psychokic Transcendence, Alice had also made an interesting discovery. While repairing Elodie''s mother''s cells, she found that the woman''s cells were inexplicablypatible with the mana used to cast the Sunset Bug Erosion.


    This was an incredibly strange situation. After all, the mana in question came from a Demon King. Yet, Elodie''s mother''s cells werepatible with a Demon King''s mana


    This might also be why this unknown Demon King had chosen to curse Elodie''s mother.


    Seeing that Elodie''s mother remained unconscious, Alice turned to Rosa and asked, "What''s Elodie''s mother''s name, Rosa? Her full name."


    "Huh? Elodie''s mother''s name?" Rosa was momentarily caught off guard by Alice''s question. Then, she answered, "Her name is Marion Silvias. She used to be a national singer during her younger days, but she retired after marrying the country''s Minister of Land."


    Rosa let out a sigh after saying so. Then, after taking a look at the door and ensuring that Elodie hadn''t returned yet, she quietly told Alice some secret information:


    "The marriage between Miss Marion and the minister is actually political. Marion''s father is one of King Hatter''s close aides. Everyone calls him Minister Ford, and he is a chubby man who wears a monocle."


    Alice quickly recalled the person Rosa referred to as Minister Ford upon hearing Rosa''s words. Of course, she didn''t remember him because she was directly acquainted with him. Instead, she remembered that when she had been administered into the hospital with Luna, Hatter had visited her with three people in tow. Meanwhile, one of those people just so happened to be wearing a monocle.


    <em>But a political marriage, huh</em>


    Upon learning about Elodie''s parents'' circumstances, Alice realized that the woman named Marion might not share too deep of a rtionship with her husband. It also exined why the Minister of Land had not shown up even once throughout her entire time here.


    It should be noted that Alice had been studying the Sunset Bug Erosion in this room from morning to afternoon. Even if the minister was busy, he should at least take some time to visit his wife during his lunch break, right? Yet, he did not do so.


    "Silvias"Alice muttered with a frown. She got the feeling that this name sounded familiar. Coupled with Marion''s cells'' strangepatibility with the Demon King''s mana, Alice couldn''t help but harbor a bold guess.

    Immediately, Alice pulled out her phone and searched for information on past Demon Kings on the inte. Then, she quickly found what she was looking for.


    The Ninth Demon King, Andusia. While she was still human, she went by the name of Silvias.


    It wasn''t umon for people of this world to use the names of their ancestors as their surnames. The fact that Marion''s surname had never attracted any attention was probably because many people shared the same surname in this world. In addition, those chosen by the Demon King''s Power would typically cast away their old names after bing a Demon King.


    However, Alice was certain that Marion''s family should be the descendants of Andusia. This would exin why Marion''s cells were highlypatible with the Demon King''s mana used to cast the Sunset Bug Erosion.


    Needless to say, the culprit responsible for Marion being cursed should also be the Ninth Demon King. Now, the only question was how the other party had managed to curse Marion.


    While Alice was pondering how she should locate the hiding Demon King, the unconscious woman on the bed suddenly let out a soft moan before slowly opening her eyes.


    Marion quickly recovered her cognitive abilities after the Sunset Bug Erosion''s effects were reversed. Meanwhile, after regaining consciousness, Marion struggled slightly to sit up on the bed and turned to look at Alice and Rosa, the only other people present in the room.


    Then, under the two girls'' gaze, Marion dazedly touched the lower half of her body while saying her first words after waking up:


    "Where did my underwear go?"
