Chapter 32: Holy Knight vs. Hero ④ (Absolute Hero Encirclement)
☆ Status Ailment Resistance Accessory ☆
These accessories come in various forms, such as rings, bracelets, and necklaces. They are rare items and extremely expensive, but Chancellor Madison has managed to amass a large quantity in a short time using his power.
Indeed, power and wealth are formidable. Almost everyone gathered in the Throne Room (excluding Prince Ryuguin) has been equipped with these accessories beforehand. While these items are notorious for having many fakes, it has been confirmed that all of them are genuine.
☆ Multi-layered Purification Barrier ☆
This is a purification barrier that reduces all abilities, such as the mana and physical strength of evil beings, layered six times. To activate it, a skilled user of Light Magic is required, and it is believed that at least six individuals of Archbishop rank or higher are necessary for such a feat. The barrier, which envelops the castle, was established by four capable Archbishops and two Cardinals gathered by Cardinal Gilbert. Furthermore, there is currently someone in the King’s Chamber who is reacting as a target of this barrier’s “evil-hearted” designation.
[Target → Prince Ryuguin]
☆ Divine Qi Barrier ☆
This is a variant of a barrier composed of Divine Qi. No one, not even the world’s greatest warrior or mage, can exit the barrier without the permission of its users, Sena and Omi. Additionally, any abilities generated within cannot leak outside. The abilities of the designated individuals within the barrier are significantly reduced.
[Target → Prince Ryuguin]
☆ Blessing Ring (Item Effect Jammer Ring) ☆
A ring crafted by Kuroa Tesoro. This item prevents the effects of items held by individuals within a certain distance. It does not activate continuously; a specific trigger is required. In this case, it has been adjusted to respond to the sound of Kuroa snapping his fingers. The name derives from his gratitude towards the Holy Knight who freed him from a curse.
[Target → Prince Ryuguin]
☆ Exorcism Barrier ☆
A type of barrier created by Saintess Mika. The abilities of targets within the barrier are significantly diminished. If the target is an evil being, the effect is even greater. Due to its power, the difficulty of using this barrier is extremely high, and the mana consumption is enormous. Moreover, it is unlikely that anyone other than Saintess Mika could create an Exorcism Barrier that covers such a vast space as the Throne Room.
[Target → Prince Ryuguin]
☆ Outer Material Mana ☆
This refers to the mana released from the body without being converted into magic. Angelica can manipulate the mana released outside her body to manifest magic, allowing her to use pseudo-advanced magic without being limited to extremely small Mana Emission Apertures. Additionally, this technique enables her to utilize her original magic, the “Reflector,” which reflects magic. Currently, a very low concentration of Angelica’s Outer Material Mana is dispersed throughout the Throne Room, prepared to use the Reflector when Prince Ryuguin activates any magic.
☆ Twin Swords Yin-Yang ☆
These are the twin swords favored by Orphelia Verite. Originally a national treasure of her homeland, they were bestowed upon her by the king in recognition of her absolute talent and achievements. The twin swords consist of the “Sun Sword White Heaven,” which governs the “Yang,” and the “Shadow Sword Black Abyss,” which governs the “Yin.” Notably, the Sun Sword White Heaven has a powerful effect against evil spirits, demons, and any beings possessing “malice.”
☆ Status Ailment Forbidden Zone ☆
This space was created by Cardinal Gilbert’s ability. Currently, the entire Throne Room is encompassed by this space, where all selected individuals are protected from status ailments. However, as the number of protected individuals increases, the user’s burden grows exponentially.
[Target → All individuals in the Throne Room except Prince Ryuguin]
☆ Curse-Killing Curse (Curse Curse Curse) ☆
This is a counter-curse ritual established by Pope Odette Sei. It is said to be the strongest existing curse-killing technique, capable of responding even to the primitive curses that are considered difficult to handle. This ritual reacts to all curses and immediately sends a curse back to the caster with multiplied power.
☆ Possession Prohibition Zone (Possession Remedy) ☆
This special barrier was activated by a man formerly known as Cole, who belonged to the Klaatel Church, in service to Saintess Mika. It prevents any being (whether evil or divine) from possessing a human body. Its application is notably narrow. Additionally, since the act of possession itself is treated as a forbidden spell, this technique is also considered a forbidden spell.
☆ Amplifier ☆
This is a ring-shaped item. It significantly enhances mana, physical strength, and all abilities. Its effects are tremendous; the original owner, Pulmy, used this ring to amplify her abilities to the point of summoning beings that should not exist (though it was a replica). However, if used at full power, it will collapse. The activation phrase is “Amplifier Activation.” This is a treasured item of Pulmy En Dynast, but she lost many in the previous battle, leaving only one remaining. That last one has been entrusted to Ichiro Yamada and is currently worn on his finger.
☆ Guardian Sword Rifire ☆
