Chapter 167 - Overlapping Strength

Even I almost felt overwhelmed by the immense pressure that Myne emitted. Although my head kept telling me “Let’s go”, my body was screaming “Don’t go” instead.

『Whatta gal. Even this Me was fooled by her. That Myne…..she’s actually much stronger than I remember.』

『Myne is in serious mode now. Once you step into the courtyard, that will be when the fight begin.』

[In the end…it’s coming to this. Is this really the only way…for us to understand each other?]

[I don’t think that it’s wrong for Myne to do this. However… I have no choice either.]

[Myne’s attack is powerful, be careful not to get hit.]

[Even so, I have resolved myself.]

『Here she comes. Myne’s blow is extremely heavy. Maintain a firm grip on my handle.』

『Push her back! If she keeps attacking continuously, you’ll eventually be overwhelmed.』

[I know.]

『Fate！』

[Myne.]

[…..]

[I don’t care how.]

[…..]

[But I’ve come this far to stop Myne.]

My eyes didn’t miss the slight movement of her eyebrows.

[I’ve heard from Luna.]

[!?]

[Luna, she…]

And my ears didn’t miss the quiet utterance leaking from her lips.

[Yes, she did. Luna told me.]

But just when I found a way to talk with Myne…someone else chose to disturb.

[Tsk, you dodged it good. What a shame.]

[I have given you enough time. I can’t wait any longer.]

[…..]

[Alright then, let’s get this over with. Let’s kill them.]

[…..]

[If you don’t, the door will never open. If the door never opens, your wish will never be fulfilled.]

[…..]

[You’ve been waiting for this moment like forever, haven’t you? It’s just around the corner now, Myne.]

Shinn walked closer to Myne, whispering something to her who had remained silent.

[Everyone is waiting for you. Are you going to betray them again?]

[I’m not.]

[Then fight seriously. They are trying to get in our way… Show them the full extent of your true power.]

Perhaps, if I was still the me of the past, I would’ve ended up the same way as Myne.

Shinn turned to me with a smile on his face. That look…he’s confident that he has won now.

『Fate, it’s getting dangerous!』

[Get away from there, Fate!]

When the holder of Wrath skill immerse themselves in anger… I wonder what would happen?

It’s exactly what I’m about to witness here.

『This is Myne’s real form.』

[Ahaha…I actually don’t want to see this again.]

The most distinctive feature was that there were a pair of horns sticking out from Myne’s forehead. In addition to that was the markings on her entire body were now glowing in white light.

『Fate, listen carefully. That’s how someone who had immersed themselves in Wrath skill looks like. Once this happens, she won’t be able to hear us anymore. Simply put, it’s like when Gluttony skill took over you. Surely you understand what that entail to.』

[So she’s unleashing the power of Wrath skill?]

『Yes. And unlike you who could only use semi-starvation state, Myne unleashed it in a full scale.』

Releasing the Mortal Sin skill at full force, huh…

『Myne will take action soon. And she’s serious now.』

As Shinn had said earlier, the time is running out.

『Her attacks would be a whole league stronger than earlier.』

『We should go all out as well. Otherwise you will not be able to receive her attacks.』

[Yeah, let’s go, Greed!]

I’ll show them the results of my training in the spiritual world up until now.

[Greed!]

『Fate！』

[『Crossing！！』]
