Doctor Altamar led us to the nearest house, there were roughly twenty people there, they all just started having symptoms. They were all, naturally, rn. Their ages ranged widely, though there was also a lot of children, so they're definitely much weaker than the adults against miasma.
I am guessing this must be a reason why they're also chosen to beco chiras, they accept more easily the miasmic infection and don't fight back, allowing those wicked vampires to easily turn them into chiras or use them for homunculi.
Their blue skin was covered on slimy, black-colored spots. There were perhaps dozens all across their bodies. Those that had spots on their eyes had them swollen and completely red. Those that were awake were in real pain, gasping for air, gritting their teeth, constantly having shivers. They were talking nonsense, hallucinating.
"T-This is..." muttered my brother, hearing the voices of pain everyone. "You're in so much pain... I can tell."
"Even now, we can barely help them through the pain with so dicine, but nothing we've used works. Not even the healing spells our priests had used on them, nor our strongest elixirs..." said Doctor Ultramar.
"I see..." I nodded. "Let try sothing."
I sat near one of the affected, touching their hand, which was covered on black spots.
"Hahhh... Mama... Hahhh... Ma... ma..."
It was a Little rmaid girl, no older than five years of age, with short pink hair, she was constantly crying, her two eyes covered on black spots, red and swollen.
"Calm down, it'll be fine now."
I closed my eyes, spreading my [Phantasmal Multi-Layered Mind Domain] Skill and placing it inside of her own body.
Like this, I could imdiately see absolutely everything inside of her physical body and even her soul, detecting every problem within seconds.
What I saw was surprising...
"I see how it is..." I nodded. "This is not a disease, it is Miasmic Infection, yes. But it's also... So sort of powerful, elaborate curse."
"A-A curse?!" asked Doctor Altamar. "But that's... We've also tried anti-curse magic on them before, how co it didn't work?"
"That's because this is a curse imbued with corrupted divinity, any of your spells would never work," I sighed. "I'll extract the curse now, stand on guard."
"On guard?" the doctor was confused.
FLUOSH!
I placed my hand over the girl's forehead, as I absorbed the curse, miasma, and everything bad out of her, a mass of black miasma surged, overflowing with a corrupted golden divinity rged with red and black colors.
"Ahh, it's working?!"
The doctor quickly started crying as he saw the black spots over the girl beginning to disappear, until none were left, her little eyes were still slightly swollen, red, and crying, but the black spots were not there anymore.
What ca out of her was this, a sphere of miasma and corrupted divinity, which then... Started to move.
"Gryeeeggghh!"
It suddenly jumped away from my grasp, reaching the ceiling.
"W-What?!"
The doctor fell over his own butt as he saw in disbelief what ca out of the little girl.
It quickly took the shape of so sort of crustacean monster, with multiple legs, and a dark blue shell, with big red eyes.
It emanated the Aura of a strong monster, at least A Rank thanks to the divinity fragnt it carried within itself.
"T-That's a curse?!" the doctor gasped.
"Woah..." Arthur muttered.
"SHAAAH!"
The three-ter-big crustacean-like monster roared furiously, rushing down towards us, it opened its jaws, revealing a mucous, acid-like substance. It moved at lightning speed, any normal person would easily get killed by this thing.
"Arthur."
"Okay!"
However, not us.
Arthur stepped forwards, pointing his hands towards the creature.
Within a second, a flash of bright Yang Essence surged, like a bright miniature sun.
"{Yang's Radiance}"
FLAAASH!
"Gryyeegghhh...!"
The bright light consud the cursed creature within an instant, burning it to the point it suddenly beca a pile of ash and disappeared.
My little brother was sure strong!
"It's done... This girl should recover over ti, but Eraldine can hasten that process. Can you heal her?" I asked her.
"For sure, leave it to ," Eraldine nodded, a wave of her hands, and divine spiritual light surged, combined with life and nature essence.
A Nature and Light Spirit Druid such as her was made to be an ultimate healer, especially with her two Divine Spirits and her Blessing of Yggdrasil.
FLASH!
The bright golden and green light encompassed the little girl, her swollen and damaged body quickly returned back to normal, and she even woke up.
"Huh? Ah... My head..." she groaned. "W-What happened?"
"S-She's cured?!" the doctor scread. "I-I can't believe this; you healed her so quickly! And
that thing..."
Doctor Altamar looked rather traumatized after seeing everything, but he tried to keep it
together.
"It was all so sort of creature?" he asked.
"I believe so," I nodded.
Looking at the system notification.
[Your Party has defeated the [Accursed Deep Miasmid (A Rank)] x1!]
[You earned 350.000 EXP.]
"It is called an Accursed Deep Miasmid," I said. "It is new, we haven't seen sothing quite like this before, but I can already guess how they work. Every person that got infected has one of those critters inside. It starts as Miasmic Infection, but they quickly form inside, then slowly rge with the person, draining their energy and mana, turning them into Demonite and mutating them at the sa ti. They are probably directly below the control of the King
of the Depths."
"I can't believe it was even worse than I imagined..." the doctor muttered. "Is there anything I
can do to help?"
"Yeah, there are too many people so if I do this one by one, we will never finish this in ti," I nodded. "So we'll start taking them out by large batches. If possible, I would like you to help
us organize a lot of people together."
"I-I see... Very well! Leave it to us!" he nodded, quickly running to prepare.
"An Accursed Deep Miasmid, huh? That's not a na we've ever heard before," Partner said.
"It's most likely a unique creation of this sealed creature," I explained. "Probably by using the powers of the Divinity it had..."
We have to take care of this quickly before things worsen.
