Chapter 145 – Sacred Beast' Intimidation

All my attacks hit. It's as if the sacred beast was incapable of fully utilizing its status. Its' movements against me seemed irrational and ineffective.

Basically, it fought largely on its instinct alone. I didn't see any response that I expected so far.

In that case, things became simpler here. Although the black sword cannot cut through its thick carapace in a single slash, I could just attack the same spot repeatedly to eventually break through.

While Spirit Unity was still in effect, I'd like to at least cut down one of its' giant pincers.

[Let's go, Greed!]

『They are easy target, yes. But you still need to be careful. Once you got caught, then you'll be torn in two！』

I know. There was only one black sword, while it has two pincers.

So while I'm busy blocking one, the other pincer might take the chance to catch me?

Moreover, the stinger was also a threat, and it's ing from above.

It's like fighting three different opponents, instead of just one.

Therefore I had to rely on Eris' support. Lust-san, I'm counting on you for the tail, okay?

I swung my blazing black sword. The target was the sacred beast' right pincer.

Avoiding the attack that came from the left, I lunged in for an attack. Although it took time, a small crack was visible in my eyes, and it's gradually getting bigger. But then I felt something.

And as I trusted that she would, Eris shot several bullets to deflect the stinger attack. Thanks!

Well done! Well done! Although I still had mixed feelings about Pride, well done.

Leaving the flow of battle to Eris as the mid-range batant, it's clear to me that the burden on myself was much lower than when I had to fight solo. This was another reason why warriors formed parties when they're out to fight monsters.

And her support is not limited to cover fire. A blue magic bullet hit me.

Just as immediately, my appearance and presence disappeared pletely. This must be… vanishing bullet!?

This is the perfect buff against the sacred beast that only react out of its instinct. The pincers stopped moving around as soon as it lost sight of me.

And I attacked leisurely without missing this opportunity.

Because it couldn't find its target, it simply moved left and right in confusion.

Seeing this, Eris switched her target to the left pincer. While I continued to attack the right pincer.

That's nice.

And Roxy had done a good job making sure those darknesses didn't bother Eris. Is it just me… or was she getting better by the seconds? Maybe she gained fairly huge amount of experience sphere from defeating darknesses. Levelling up throughout the fight.

The battle had been going well so far. But the effect of Spirit Unity should wear off shortly.

I swung the flame-clad Greed once more in fierce rush.

Crack

Sound of shattering echoed throughout the desert.

Soon after, the right pincer fell powerlessly on the sand. It's been swinging its' pincers crazily after it lost sight of me. But now one of that pincer had bee seemingly unusable.

『Fate, cut it pletely! It'll be troublesome if it regenerates.』

[I know.]

Regardless of his usual attitude, Greed will give useful tips when required. Just as usual.

But that's exactly why I tried to not rely on his advice too much.

pletely cutting the sacred beast' right pincer. At least he gave a precise advice this time.

It being unable to move it also exposed its weakness. As long as I can slash through, cutting through the joints should be easier.

Raising the black sword, I swung down at the joint with all my might.

The moment the sword cut, I was shocked. The sacred beast spun in a frightening speed, knocking me away that my body passed by Eris, then towards Roxy.

[Fai!]

As she called out my name, Roxy tried to cushion my body. But it seemed that the momentum was stronger than expected.

She audibly grunted but still managed to catch and stop me.

[Thanks. Are you okay?]

[I am. That aside, how is Fai?]

[I'm fine, thanks to Roxy.]

Saying that I'm well to reassure her, I switched my focus back to the sacred beast.

A black pattern appeared on its carapace. The pattern resembled the one on my Dad's face.
