[Chi, such a nuisance.]

Though I understood that I couldn’t ignore it either, especially if it multiplied to such an extent.

[Really a huge nuisance.]

The omega slimes had even obstructed my line of sight to that man in black. The translucent gigantic blobs had actually surrounded me. Meanwhile, that guy hadn’t even budged a single step from where he stood.

It’s a quite frightening situation.

How cute you are, aren’t you? Just as I expected, the omega slimes suddenly surged towards me all at once. There was no room to escape… or was there….?

『Fate! Where is your countermeasure, Fate!』

[Fuー, it’s a bit bothersome to not be able to breath.]

『You……have already used it』

[It’s thanks to Gluttony skill]

[These omega slimes are no longer a threat to me anymore.]

The inorganic voice began to resound in my head, telling me that I had killed something. Here was where the problem began.

The gluttony skill was running rampant. I clenched my jaw while staring at the blood falling on the ground.

[Not nearly enough, there is still more to eat]

『Cut it out, it’s impossible』

[Don’t say that. I have to at least hear his voice.]

『That guy, I think he’s waiting for you to become unable to eat anymore. It’s the omega slime after all.』

[Before that happens, my stats will skyrocket.]

『No, that will depend on what will you do next』

[Greed?]

Why? I kept hearing the inorganic voice announcing that the stats have been added, but I couldn’t feel anything.

This shouldn’t be the case. I tried to draw the black bow to shot at the man in black once more. It was supposedly a magic arrow with power much greater than any I’ve ever shot before.

But the man in black didn’t even intercept it, he simply took the blow.

[This is……]

He didn’t even receive any damage, only his mask was displaced a little. Shrugging of the magic arrow as if it’s something insignificant, as if telling me I don’t even need to intercept it in the first place.

Greed urged me to check myself with Appraisal. Certainly I haven’t seen how much I’ve grown after eating that many.

『That is the limit of a human. From here onward is the domain beyond that of a human. It is known as the Area E』

[Area E….that’s]

I’m missing something that will allow me to break my limit. Perhaps that’s also why I couldn’t do anything on Tenryu’s presence.

『Fate, here is the bottomline. There is a huge difference between those who has reached Area E compared to those who hasn’t.』

[That is….]

『Any attack you do toward a person of Area E will do no damage. Physical, magical, special states, any kind of attacks will not affect them.』

[Then, the reason why the magic arrow earlier didn’t do anything to him…..]

I switched to black sword form and continued to attack the omega slime while listening to Greed.

『There is no mistaking, he belongs to Area E』

『Fate, let me tell you this. No matter how sharp the weapon is, it all still goes back to its wielder. That’s why I said earlier that it’ll be depending on what you do』
