Tenryu greatly inflated its throat, preparing for a roar. Judging from the direction, it’s aimed at the fortress city Babylon. Apparently, it’s still trying to fulfill the order even if its master was gone…..
I couldn’t let that happen.
[Greed, have you ever tried walking in the air before?]
『！？ What do you mean？』
Rather than jumping, it’s more like I kicked the ground so much that I left a crater on it. I approached Tenryu which was still in midair that way, aiming for the sword that is still stuck on its chin.
I took the chance to climb over Tenryu that had lost most of its lower jaw. My eyes looked around, and found that the black sword was still stuck on the remnant of the jaw that was now piece of bloody chunk of meat. Using the piece as a foothold, I got closer and retrieved the sword.
[Welcome back, Greed. How was the air walk?]
『Fate……I’ll remember this. Treating this me like a disposable throwing weapon……』
[I did retrieve you back properly.]
『That’s not the problem！』
Better than that, it had auto recovery boost…. I see. So that’s why it can still fly despite having taken this much damage. Apparently it’s the next level of my own auto recovery skill.
I wanted to appraise the auto recovery boost further, but Tenryu didn’t give me any more time to do so.
More arms were attacking me. I listened to Greed while dodging.
[Wh, why didn’t Tenryu stop moving even if I look at it with my eyes?]
『Even if you have higher stats, it won’t work since it belongs to Area E. I told you already, Area E is a world apart. Various things can happen』
[Too bad….]
[The one who will fall is you.]
I jumped off Tenryu after it lost its last wing, and watched it crash into the ground. To be able to bring down a being that was considered to be either a god or an angel was a rather satisfying feeling.
Now that the gigantic creature lost its mobility, it looked almost harmless to me. Apparently, the auto recovery boost had a limit, seeing that the mangled jaw and the severed wings didn’t grow back.
Although having no lower jaw, Tenryu still attempted to release its powerful roar. As I thought the Tenryu was indeed a formidable adversary. It saw me dropping down in midair unable to dodge.
And of course Greed immediately warned me of this situation.
『Fate！』
[No problem]
By doubling the stats of Area E, even a common technique like Sharp Edge showed a tremendous power that can even cut through Tenryu’s attack.
The high density energy wave was split in two, and dispersed into particles of light. Tenryu was also not spared from that attack. The sword continued to slash down until it hit the earth and caused a huge chasm as it dug deep into the ground.
It’s over. As I landed back on the ground, I could hear the inorganic voice.
Instantaneous pain suddenly struck the inside of my body. The reaction of Gluttony skill had indeed gone beyond the limit of what I can endure. It exceeded Luna’s power which suppressed the gluttony skill.
I felt like I have to do it it now. It’s already the third time so far, and I think I got used to it to a certain extend. While my condition still allows me to.
[I’m sorry, Greed.]
『Fate！ Wait！ Stop it……』
[I….can’t hold on…..]
The time has come to fulfill her promise.
