BXBX NOVEL Chapter 150 Trust
-----
It was good that Elisabeth somehow trusted me, although it is very odd that her angel trusted me. I suppose this angel doesn\'t have any memories of a possible previous life, because I am fairly sure most of the angels in the outer universe would quickly realize who I was by merely taking a glance at the natural aura surrounding my body. After all, I wasn\'t the Emperor of over half the Universe for nothing. Everyone knew my name back then… But I wonder if anybody remembers me now? I sometimes wonder how long it has been since I died.
Well, that has no bearing on the current problem ahead of my path today. I really thought I would just take it easy but I am now being forced to resolve a crime- Well, it is no longer a normal noble drama if it involves demonic powers, so I want to see the end of this drama and reach a conclusion.
Elisabeth believed me and made Ellergest trust me fairly easily. I am still wondering how that\'s even possible, but I just realized this old man is literally a child compared to my mind. Bending his own will because of his cute adoptive daughter is quite ridiculous, not something you would expect from an ancient being, but he\'s just probably around 80, so that\'s a child to me.
Only humans are so foolish to even be fooled and convinced so easily by a little and "cute" creature such as a child, but Ellergest was weak against her innocent charm. I suppose he\'s really like her father figure if she called him "papa".
"This old man kind of reminds me of you now, my lord." Said Eleanora, speaking after being in silence for a while.
"Hah, well, as if I would ever change my opinion or do something I would regret for anybody like that-"
"Well, what about Erika? I am pretty sure you did something that made you regret it later… I am fairly sure you\'re weak to her… And me too, right?" Asked Eleanora.
"…I don\'t know what you\'re talking about, Eleanora. Stop talking nonsense. I am someone with incredible patience but that doesn\'t mean I will let somebody fool me or tease me!" I told her through telepathy, as she giggled a bit.
"Okay, sorry… Fufu."
Has she gotten cocky? Hm… Well, it is not like I dislike it. Being freer from her responsibilities had made her develop her individuality better, and that… I like that.
Anyways, Ellergest was convinced, time to dispel this curse. I had done this before many times, I remember even freeing an entire planet of people from this curse that had become a planet filled with demons that were formerly the planet\'s original inhabitants. It is fairly easy to do after you grow strong enough, but for now I would guess it is quite hard even to heal a single person on my own.
This is why I need the Mana from these two. Their holy attribute is stronger than the light magic I can conjure, which doesn\'t have any attribute particles added to it to become even remotely strong. If I had a Magic Circle, I could fill it with Holy Light Runes to enhance the power of my Light Magic as well, but that would be too inefficient seeing as I want to mostly specialize in my affinity elements while leaving all other elements as support.
This is why I will need more allies in this life. I cannot do everything alone. In my previous life my allies were ridiculously strong compared to anything else, only below me, so they were good fighters that helped me in the battles, but aside from that, I was able to do most things on my own… but in this life, I cannot give myself that luxury so easily.

I merged it with my Qi, and generated Heavenly Qi, as I touched the burnt demon woman\'s forehead and quickly gathered my mind into the usage of this technique once more. I looked into the woman\'s body through my Demon Eye, being able to easily detect demon energies with it even better than just a normal eye.
I saw her entire body flowing with a current of red energy that was burning her from the inside. It was taking over her entire body and constantly twisting her insides, the metamorphosis was still very early and it can be reversed without the need for absurd levels of power.
FLASH!
I infused the Heavenly Qi inside of her and her entire body was purified in mere seconds. The demonic energies wriggled angrily as if trying to resist, but they turned into ashes and disintegrated quickly after the heavenly qi flowed through her body. I also activated her Qi Core and everything else in the process to give her enough stamina and vitality to survive through the entire ordeal. The heavenly qi healed her burnt wounds for the most part as well, although it left some ugly burn scars around her chest and arms.
"Aahhh… Agh…"
Gabriela slowly fell asleep after groaning a bit, although I was able to destroy the curse. The appearance she acquired didn\'t change that much. There was still a red horn on her forehead, and although I cleansed the demonic powers, a part of it fused with her very being. I suppose I cannot completely heal a Demon Pawn yet, so she ended with these powers sticking to her. Although… isn\'t this good? Oh, well, in this society she might end up discriminated against. Might as well try to take them out.
I quickly moved towards her while everybody else looked at her in silence, she calmed down and the dreadful presence she emanated was gone. I took out a small knife I had and cut off her demon horn from her forehead cleanly…
