"No, she is a natural lycanthrope elf. Her parents are infected with lycanthropy. They are a very rare family of lycanthropic elves!"
"What does that have to do with me? I don't know how to treat this disease, John?"
"Only [Prayer] can cure people who are born into beasts!"
The paladin said without any expression on his face.
"Listen to me slowly, sir, the story is still long! It was a beautiful night, she and her former lover..."
Dorso tells the love story between two elves in an aria.
In the first half, he stirred up and down like reciting a beautiful poem, describing a vigorous love.
In the second half, he used a deep voice to express Sonnis's grief after the hero died tragically at Margaret's claws.
"That's right! Hahahaha, cheers to a beautiful love!"
Tia raised her glass and praised loudly. She drank a lot of wine on an empty stomach and was already a little drunk!
"Nice story, what next?"
The short-haired man asked calmly.
Victor, who is already fifty or sixty years old in two lifetimes, has long lost the illusion of "love".
Although he can appreciate this kind of love story, he will not be moved by it.
"You are so cold! Victor! The fire-haired lady probably won't like you!"
Dosuo shook his head and could only continue talking.
Sonnis swore to the [God of Love] that she would "sacrifice" herself to whoever could kill the red dragon Maxima!
"Sunny's charm is well known in Mist Town. However, due to fear of the contagious nature of [lycanthropy], some people will avoid contact with her."
The halfling held the wine glass, winked at Victor teasingly, and then said:
"Even so, there are still many adventurers who fall under her charm, but the red dragon is so powerful that no one can fulfill her oath until you come.
Hey, Victor! There is no doubt that you are the one who fulfills her "reward" vow!"
Does the so-called [God of Love] support this kind of oath? Isn't this a betrayal of "loyalty"? And shouldn't she swear to a certain [God of Vengeance]?
He asked the question in his mind.
"[The God of Love] is in charge of all [love] in the world, including true love, or some unethical romances. He encourages free love and also encourages devotion to love!"
The paladin explained aloud, his tone had returned to its former calmness and no longer made people feel depressed.
Victor didn't hear any description of "loyalty" or "loyalty"
——Well, it seems that this [fire-haired lady] is also a big bitchi!
Thinking about the "background introduction" given by Doso and John, should this sexy and wild mist guard Sanis be considered a "widow"?
Thinking of this, Victor's eyes moved!
"Ahem, I think we can talk about how to cure [lycanthropy] first. With such a terrible curse, we still need to be prepared when we go out!"
Victor said calmly and wisely, seeming not to be moved at all by what Dosso just said.
The upright paladin began to introduce how to deal with emergencies such as "lycanthropy infection".
When a character is attacked by a [lycanthrope] in beast or "half-beast" form and is injured, he will be infected with lycanthropy.
This disease is latent and occurs on the first full moon after infection.
During an attack, the infected person will transform into an animal form, forget everything about themselves, and prey like wild beasts.
After the full moon, he returns to normal, but will forget everything about when he turned into a beast.
From then on, every full moon, the lycanthrope would involuntarily transform into a beast - more classic ones, such as the legend of the werewolf.
Of course, if you believe in certain gods or advance into certain professions, you can resist this involuntary "animal transformation" through the power of the gods or your own willpower.
It is worth mentioning that lycanthropes will also show certain lycanthropic characteristics when they are particularly emotional, and may even directly transform into animal forms...
The infection can be removed by eating the fresh young leaves of a plant called "Belladonna" within one hour of being infected with lycanthropy.
However, belladonna is highly toxic, so eating it to cure lycanthropy requires a strong body.
Hearing this, Victor's eyes lit up...
Even if the medicine is not taken in time, within three days after being infected, the divine spell [Remove Disease] or [Medical Skill] released by the high-level priest can directly remove the disease.
If there is no priest, within three days before and after the full moon, if a high-level paladin or mage casts [Remove Curse] or [Break Barrier], there is a certain chance of directly curing [Lycanthropy] - regardless of whether he is infected.
how long.
Finally, this method can be tried many times until the infected person is cured.
The premise is that the person being treated has strong enough willpower!
Victor was inexplicably relieved. It seemed that he didn’t have to take poison. This kind of curse wasn’t that scary!
"Sannis is a natural lycanthrope elf. To cure her [lycanthropy], there is only a 9-level spell [Prayer]"
The sorceress emphasized:
"Moreover, animal transformation will bring a certain amount of strength to people, and some people will actively pursue this kind of power."
"That's it, haha! John, you can cast [Remove Curse], right?"
After receiving a positive answer from the paladin, Victor continued with a smile:
"Then I'm relieved, this is really a "terrible" curse!
There is a saying in my hometown: "If you often walk by the river, your shoes will not get wet."
What I want to ask is, where can I find [Belladonna]?”
"There are quite a few in the forest outside the east side of the town. Victor, don't worry so much. This kind of curse is difficult to take effect on people with strong bodies!"
The paladin tried to comfort the silver-robed man Victor, who he thought was a little "scared."
"So that's the case, then I'm completely relieved!"
Shatara looked a little strange, but didn't say anything.
At this time, a tall male waiter also brought the food up.
It seems that this is a "serious" pub, without the existence of "sexy female bartenders".
The adventurers obviously didn't care about this, they just started their lunch.
Regarding this meal, Victor’s evaluation was: Not bad!
Some dinosaur meat he couldn't recognize tasted unique, and the vegetables and soup were also praiseworthy.
How could a civilization that has existed for tens of thousands of years not know how to cook food?
There is also a kind of "whitebait" that is specially produced in the Sosen Star River dozens of kilometers away. Not only is it delicious, but it also provides high energy, which made Victor full of praise.
This kind of silverbait, which possesses magical powers, is difficult to catch. After being killed, the fish meat is very easy to deteriorate and can only be kept fresh by magic, so it is very expensive.
Of course, these were all asking for more, and the paladin didn't say anything.
Victor felt full after eating only two palm-sized pieces of this fish.
This was the same eating experience as "eating elephants" in the pirate world before, and the experience was much better, so he secretly took note of the various characteristics of this fish.
After lunch, they just chatted. Due to the exhaustion of just coming back from the adventure, they didn't plan to do anything this afternoon.

"Reiner came to Chult to support the Mist Elves in their fight against the Black Dragon? Isn't the Blue Moon Knight only interested in fighting [Darkness]?"
After listening to the paladin's story, Shatara asked doubtfully.
“During the Year of Troubles, Chult’s [Shadow Giant] was killed by the [Lady of Night] and devoured its divine power.
It seems that the Lost Lady is beginning to develop followers in this forest..."
The paladin explained.
The demigod [Shadow Giant] Acevedo is a "dark side" split from the powerful god [Father of Dinosaurs] Wu Tao.
He who controls the "power of darkness" is not liked by Wu Ta'ou, but is regarded as an enemy.
In the Year of Troubles, this demigod died at the hands of Shar.
[The Father of Dinosaurs] was seriously injured during the Turbulent Years, and few people know what his actual condition is now.
The current predicament of the mist elves is also affected by the problem of this powerful divine being.
It should be noted that this continent is still under the absolute rule of the gods!
In recent years, the Church of the Night has also begun to spread out in the Chult area, and where there is a "dark night", there is a "Silver Moon".
Hundreds of years after the Turbulent Years, Suellen, the new goddess of magic, [Ms. Silver Moon], seems to have begun her counterattack against the night.
