Otome Game no Heroine de Saikyou Survival-Chapter 110.2
Conclusion and New Request (2)
I gripped the horn tightly in both hands as Dalton, Viro, and the others nodded with smiles.
“Next, here’s the main issue.”
Apparently, I vanished from that place at that time and reappeared a few seconds later. Three people vanished at the same time, one of whom turned out to be Carla, who had received Divine Protection, and of the other two, one of them had also received Divine Protection while the other had only received a “blessing.”
After Dalton’s explanation, Sera added.
“We have received an explanation from Master Dalton that you too, Aria, have received a “blessing” instead of Divine Protection. We would like to ask you directly about this and have brought a request to Aria personally, as one of [Rainbow Sword]. “
“A request?”
I muttered, and Sera nodded quietly.
“It is a direct request from Her Highness. Please ask her about the details.”
After a pause, Sera broke into a wry smile.
“She didn’t say it in words, but Her Highness was worried about you.”
“…”
I couldn’t move without getting hurt before it became a Combat Skill, but now that [Iron Rose] has become a Combat Skill, I only get tired, but there was nothing that was damaging to my body.
More than that, a request from Elena? I looked at Dalton to see if it was okay, and he nodded slowly with a serious face.
“Personal requests are common. Besides, I’ve prevented other royalty from interfering, but you’re the one who should decide what to do with Her Highness, the Princess.”
“You know, it would probably be a good idea to ask the Princess to prevent the other people from getting involved with you.”

I nodded quietly in response to Viro’s light interjection.
Even if it was a blessing rather than Divine Protection, the royal family would not want to leave someone involved with the spirits unchecked. If this was the case–
“Okay. I’ll listen to what she has to say.”
Immediately, Sera and I headed to the private room where Elena was.
On the way there, the people I met looked at me with different gazes. The Royal Guards and squires looked at me with a mixture of fondness and fear, while the Duke’s knights, who did not take part in the conquest, looked at me with contempt.
When I arrived at Elena’s room after about 10 minutes, the Royal Guards who were guarding the door only looked at me and returned to their upright, unmoving posture. Sera’s mouth twitched slightly, as if she were trying to hold back a laugh.
“Your Highness, I brought that adventurer.”
Sera announced at the door, and from inside a servant woman from the dark division, whom I had seen before, opened the door, looked at me, and smiled.
I was escorted into the room and went to an inner section, where Elena sat down on a sofa and smiled gracefully at me.
“Come this way, Aria, there’s no need for any fake courtesy. Everyone here knows who you are.”
“…I understand.”
I sat on the sofa facing Elena, guided by the attendant, and looked at her intently, hoping to gauge her true intentions.
“Do you have Divine Protection?”
“Why so suddenly. I’ve been thinking a lot about what to say to Aria, who I haven’t seen in a while, but…well…you’re right. That was out of character.”
Elena sips at a cup of local tea Sera brewed for her, which smells sweet, and breathes out a sigh of relief.
“I turned it down. Like Aria, perhaps. Instead, I wished for a better health…[Fire Javeline]–“
Elena suddenly used magic. But that magic didn’t activate, even though the magic power was moving, and Elena looked at her hands and chuckled self-mockingly.
“Perhaps that erased my [Skill] and [Attribute] in Fire Magic. The spirit mentioned that it was restoring my soul… If one Attribute was reduced, the magic stone that was pressuring my heart would gradually become smaller.”
She continued.
“But…the [Fire Magic] I trained up to level 3 is gone. I gave my ‘consent’ to that, but I can also understand why Carla-sama didn’t want her body to be healed.”
“I see…”
I wonder if erasing the [skill] engraved on the soul would be similar to using [Healing] to remove a tattoo.
And Elena’s used the word [Acknowledging], so there may be some restrictions on accessing the soul, even for a being that powerful.
With one Attribute reduced, Elena lost a little of her strength. However, she gained a healthy body at the same time, which should increase the number of people who would recommend her for Queen.
I somehow guessed what “request” she wanted from me, and it had something to do with that.
When I stared at her silently, Elena guessed my intention and gave me a wry smile. How typical of her.
“Let me be frank with you. One year from now, I will enter the Academy of Magic. And for the next three years, I would like to ask Aria, an adventurer, to be my escort within the academy.”
