After a while, the monster horde coming from the south finally came in contact with the waiting frontline of the King’s army.

The monsters mainly consisted of the green skinned orcs. There were also several monsters with proper titles among them though. But aside from Roxy, there were a lot of other holy knights participating in the battle, so I don’t think I’m going to need to intervene.

There was no reaction from the Gluttony skill either. So there was probably no considerable threat on that battlefield at the moment.

With a sigh of relief, I oversaw Roxy’s battle from atop of high wall, until Greed warned me of enemy sign approaching from the east.

『Something is closing in rapidly toward where the King’s army and the death march are』

[!? But there is nothing there….]

Looking at the direction Greed told me about, I saw nothing but the vast wilderness. I guess I can’t see it.

[Is it strong?]

『Yes, it is』

[In that case, I guess we won’t end up missing out some kills.]

『I told you not to be reckless, but I guess you won’t listen.』

[I thought you’d already get used to it by now? Well, let’s get started.]

My left eye was burning hot. It’s the sign that I have successfully awakened the Gluttony skill and entered semi-starving state.

『It seems that you can handle it better than before.』

[It’s thanks to the training Greed has taught me.]

『Fuhn, if it’s not because of me, I doubt that you can get this far』

Even under this state, my mind remained calm, so it should be alright. It’ll be okay as long as it’s just a short battle like before.

I looked toward the east with my eye that can see the magic flow now

[This is….]

[I’ll stop it before that happens.]

『Already so eager when it’s just the beginning. There is no need to get too absorbed in battle.』

[Let’s use ‘that’]

『Ho……so you want to try ‘that’ out? Very well.』

Charged Shot is an art that can double the range of the bow. The mutated version Spiraling Charged Shot, is able to increase the range even further the more magic power I accumulated, and in addition to that, dramatically increase the arrow penetration power too.

『So you forcefully mutate the skill I can’t normally use, making it usable for me, thus increasing its power and effectiveness……that sounds interesting alright』

[I can’t always rely on Greed’s poor economy and unreasonable cost after all.]

『You just had to say that, didn’t you?』

It broke the sound barrier many times, cutting through the air, drawing a black line eastward. Then it penetrated the earth, disappearing into the ground without slowing down.

[Did you see that? I fished that out!]

『Hahahahahaha、today’s a feast!』

[That’s right, you’ll never catch something like this on normal fishing spot]

『What’s the matter? Suddenly giggling like that.』

[Nothing….it’s just that, in the old days, I would never thought that it was possible to jump off from such a tall place and survive]

『If you don’t get used to this kind of thing quickly, you’ll only embarrass me. I guess for the you right now, it’s actually something important.』

[I know that already.]

[Let’s see what are you exactly.]

『Well, it’s common in Gallia』

[Really…]

Let’s confirm the stats of the unexpected enemy once again.
