Chapter 751: Curse: The Unborn Endymion

Annan had been maintaining the “Ritual Spell: Trace of Divine Transporter” that he had exhausted his mana.

Even with Annan’s Order Mana value four times higher than the average, he had only about a quarter remaining.

Annan wouldn’t be able to recover his mana until sunrise tomorrow.

To be on the safe side, Annan stopped communicating with Endymion and flew back to the platform.

As Annan released his transformation state, his wings turned into light spots and dissipated. The brilliance that automatically tracked and coded Annan’s body also disappeared.

“Your Majesty, please put on your clothes first.” Zoya had taken off her coat before she walked over and put it on Annan as soon as Annan’s “Trace of Divine Transporter” state dissipated.

Then, she began to arrange a simple ritual on the spot and took out some emergency supplies she had stored in advance.

Annan was unfazed with his clothes gone after using the ultimate move.

It was simply because he got used to it.

The first time Annan fought Rotten Man with his clothes exploded did make him feel a little embarrassed. However, after a series of similar events, he didn’t see it as a big problem anymore…

After all, Annan wasn’t a Bishoujo in Sailor Moon. He didn’t have any scars or bruises. He didn’t have the troubled state of a female either. There was nothing on his male body that he couldn’t show. Hence, he would keep his chest and head raised in a domineering posture.

—As you abandon your moral integrity, you will become stronger.

However, Zoya obviously wouldn’t think so.

After she put some clothes on Annan, she glared at Suuankou who looked over curiously.

Suuankou:???

He looked at Citalopram who was staring at Annan with a dazed expression. No way, I am a male!

Why are you glaring at me instead of Citalopram?

Didn’t you see that she was looking at your Majesty unabashedly?

Annan’s first reaction after putting on the Zoya coat was to carefully check whether the three-color scepter was damaged.

In the end, Annan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the crystal ball that had been lit up through the “Ritual Spell: Trace of Divine Transporter” had also reverted to its original state, knowing that there were no changes in its function.

Everything else is fine, but it’s really not easy to find a crystal ball enchantment that is just the right size and can fit perfectly into the three-color scepter…

At this moment, Zoya found Annan’s spare set of clothes — Annan’s [Lover Bearer].

That was the [Silver Sire’s Favor] from before. It suffered some damage in the previous battle with Spiritual Monk Bernardino but was repaired and blessed by the Paper Princess. Except for the three silver circles on the cuffs, this dress was quite close to Enkidu’s white robe [1].

Annan’s expression became a little strange when he noticed that he had to put on these clothes again after being naked.

…Will I be wearing the same thing next time?

“By the way, this hair is really troublesome.” Annan muttered in a low volume.

After he used “Trace of Divine Transporter” this time, he found that this spell was indeed not bad — although this state was weaker than the Gold Rank form that he entered when he used the Sage’s Stone previously and could use the Book of Truth… Annan could still use all the elemental power in advance.

In the “LAN” communication just now, Annan used the elemental power of [brilliance] and [understanding].

Annan’s bloodline element…for example, the [Frost] element showed no response at all.

Correspondingly, the power of other elements in Annan’s soul… such as the power of [wisdom], [beauty], [strictness], and [glory] could be extracted.

Although there was no battle this time, Annan realized the usefulness of this spell.

It had only one drawback.

This spell somewhat promoted hair growth.

After Annan lifted the spell, his tenacious hair did not dissipate. Instead, Annan only dispelled the light attached.

This long, silver-white, silky hair, which was two meters long, was spread out on the ground, resembling liquid mercury.

This left Annan unable to move at all, so he had no choice but to ask Zorgen to cut off his hair first. He would then return and find a hairstylist to do his hair again.

“Maybe this hair can be used for some ritual.” With the mentality of not wasting resources, Annan ordered Zorgen, “Let’s put it away first.”

That was hair with a length of just one and a half meters—under normal circumstances, hair of this length would have already become dry and frizzy due to dehydration.

However, these silver-white hairs that appeared out of thin air due to the effect of the spell not only felt smooth as silk but were even slightly translucent… Perhaps it was related to the fact that Annan had been dyed with [brilliance] and [understanding] elements.

After putting on the white robe, Annan picked up Russell, who was so frightened that she collapsed into a small furball, and put her into his arms.

He exposed his left shoulder and asked the others, “Can you see this mark?”

“…The pale golden symbol?” Zoya thought.

However, Suuankou on the side blurted out, “Boundless serpent?”

“That’s infinity. The symbol of Ouroboros.” Citalopram complained.

“Ouroboros…” Annan said, deep in thought.

Probably that.

They were not Annan, and they certainly could not communicate with Endymion. Without the brilliance element, these northern nobles would have no way of knowing that there was someone inside the chrysalis of light.

It was still the size of a fetus, twenty meters tall.

If such a huge fetus was born, it would be a giant baby.

If it grows up, wouldn’t that be Ultraman?

There was no direct relationship between Endymion and the Worm Ritual. The northern nobles knew that the Worm Ritual should be somewhere else. However, there must be a connection… Otherwise, they wouldn’t know that sacred bone extract could forcibly activate inert curse energy.

The place where they learned how to activate the curse energy should be the same place where they got the Worm Ritual and the place where they learned that the Black Rock Curse Shaft was still in normal use — this place might also have [the Heart of Justice] clues.

The enlightenment was short-lived, but Annan was certain that the sacred bone extract used by the “counts” was the extract of “the Heart of Justice”.

Annan felt he could finally get the “Heart of Justice” he had been pursuing for a long time as he followed this clue.

However, what did my stupid son, or should I say stupid daughter, leave in my body?

Annan checked on it for a moment, and a system prompt appeared before his eyes.

It turned out to be a curse—

[The Unborn Endymion (Persistent Type): If your left shoulder is not exposed to light for 13 hours, you will occasionally feel scorching pain.]

[Effect: When you use “Ritual Spell: Trace of Divine Transporter” or use Exalted Avatar to fully activate the [brilliance] element, your or your Exalted Avatar’s size will become eight times the original size]

[“8” is the extremity of light——Endymion]

…What a weird curse.

The conditions of this curse made Annan stunned for a while.

It had no side effects, and it didn’t seem to offer much either. The power of the elements would not become stronger according to the size of the body. Once Annan was already forced to transform, he wouldn’t continue to fight in melee.

What’s the use of becoming a giant that’s eight times my size?

Annan’s first reaction was.

Could it be that you’re really an Ultraman…
