Chapter 74 – Decisive Moment

However, even though Roxy called my name, I didn't respond.

No, I'd be better off not saying anything…..

Now, since I'm under the starving effect of gluttony skill, when I looked at her with my current red eyes, Roxy ended up unable to move due to her lower stats being lower than mine. That kind of power alone was a proof of my abnormality.

She tried to say something through her gaze, but time would not wait. Tenryu could throw another roar at any time, I couldn't spare my thought trying to understand what Roxy was trying to say.

I'd deceived her up until now…..I swear I would tell her everything later. But I had to convey the one thing I need her to do first.

[Please leave with the army immediately. Tenryu will start moving again anytime soon. I will buy you some time.]

And brief, final words,

[….I've always lied to you….I'm sorry, Roxy-sama. Thank you, for everything up until now.]

In the end I merely said what I want to say. It made me feel so cowardly it hurt my chest.

Then, when I was about redirect my attention back to the Tenryu, I saw Roxy's big eyes shed tears. I didn't know the meaning behind those tears, not that I had time to think about it at the moment.

Roxy couldn't say anything back due to the restraining property of my red eyes. But I almost could hear her calling out my name in a low voice as she took her leave.

As I ran myself on a stretch, I saw Tenryu recovering from the scratch it suffered, and Norden standing over its head. Looking down on earth from the sky like a heavenly being.

Anyways, Tenryu had so much lifeforce. To think it could recover from such wound in just a moment…

I have to attack it before it pletely recovered. So I changed the black sword into black bow, while also thinking how to get rid of that troublesome Norden.

I continuously sprayed magic arrows at Norden from all sides. He intercepted some with the black projectiles, but had to slash the rest with the bayonet.

What's with that……I wondered? Why did he do that when he could've use the black projectile to intercept all the arrows I shot?

Greed told me through 《mind reading》 in response to my unfortable feeling.

『It seems there is a limit on how many times he can shoot in a row. Thinking back, he did attack in intervals.』

[It seems so. But, Greed! Why don't you even know about it? Aren't you also a Mortal Sin weapon?]

『Envy is a second generation weapon. There are many things I don't know about it. It's not like I'd seen its design draft.』

[What's with that? Greed….how unreliable you are]

『Shut up! Besidely that guy is a secretive bitch with a twisted personality. This me is so much better.』

……so it's pretty much the same as Greed, a real handful to take care of….. Although I couldn't say that right now. We are still in the midst of battle. I'll be in trouble if the bastard sulk.

Then, let's just do this.

[I'm glad that what I got was Greed!]
