I explained what would happen if Yoo Yeonha's hair ended up in the curse magician's hands. I didn't exaggerate or downplay anything. A curse of weakening could only be canceled by killing the curse magician, and although the curse couldn't directly kill, in an environment like this without any medical facilities, it could lead to the absolute worst situation.
When I finished explaining, the atmosphere of the group had turned grave.
"Oh right, you mentioned it before... I forgot about it... dammit."
Chae Nayun blamed herself as she clenched her fists. However, I couldn't blame her for not remembering. I had only briefly mentioned it a week ago, when she was sleepy from being on night watch.
Perhaps my fault was the biggest, since I didn't tell them about all the dangers properly. If I did, they wouldn't have forgotten to bring back Yoo Yeonha's lost hair.
We fell silent for a moment.
This anxious yet calm silence was broken by the cheery voice of the person of concern.
"Why are your faces so serious?"
Yoo Yeonha continued with a bright expression.
"We're not sure yet if it is a curse. Plus, I have some anti-magic power. I can beat something like a curse easily... ah."
Shin Jonghak's hand fell on her head. Looking at the startled Yoo Yeonha, he spoke.
"...Tell me if it hurts."
Yoo Yeonha's cheeks turned faintly red. Was this the bad boy's charm? While I was having idle thoughts, Yoo Yeonha nodded energetically.
"Un, but I don't think it's going too hurt much."
"...Don't lie, tsk."
Suddenly, Shin Jonghak got up with his spear, catching our attention. Seemingly enraged, Shin Jonghak blurted out with a heated voice.
"They should be busy organizing themselves after being ambushed. So let's barge in and crush them before the sun comes up."
Currently, it was 3 in the morning. There was still some time before sunrise.
If Yoo Yeonha really was cursed, there was no time to waste. We had to defeat them as soon as possible.
We got up following Shin Jonghak. With stiff expressions, everyone began to check their equipment.
"L-Let me go too. I'm still okay...."
"You stay put."
Shin Jonghak stopped Yoo Yeonha who was trying to force herself up.
We left Yoo Yeonha behind and set out.
This time, the battle only took an hour.
The enraged Shin Jonghak swept through the north tower and retrieved the purple crystal.
Shin Jonghak's Physique, 'Intermittent Explosive Disorder', had been triggered.
For the record... the Intermittent Explosive Disorder Physique was a strange Physique that amplified one's physical stats by up to 130 percent depending on one's anger.

Gwangmyeong City Hall.
Asura sat on a throne as he received his subordinate's report that three crystals were stolen in one night.
Although he was enraged at first, he soon calmed down.
It was thanks to Yi Yohan, the curse magician he kept with him.
