Enjoy the chapters~

It’s too huge… It approached while creating a huge tsunami.

The huge islands were about to collide.

If we stay on this sandy beach, we’ll get caught up in it.

I lightly patted Cecilia on the cheek to wake her up.

『Fate, hurry up!』

[I know.]

Since I can’t imagine the extent of the conflict between the islands, it’s best to stay as far away from them as possible.

When Cecilia woke up, she was still upset about Georg’s rebellion.

[Get yourself together! Look at that.]

I shook my shoulder and showed her the direction of the approaching island.

[Other islands are trying to converge on Louise Island. Let’s leave here.]

『I need to remind you, heading to the center of the island means fighting monsters. Cecilia, can you fight?』

[…Tell me what happened after I pa.s.sed out.]

[I’ll tell you while we’re moving. Let’s get out of here quickly.]

[Alright.]

As we left the coast, I explained to Cecilia what happened so far.

Georg has a similar Mortal Sins skill as me, and he destroyed the sacred relic that maintains the Great Wall.

As a result, every single one of the beastkin turned into monsters. Then, they talked about how they had swarmed into an elf city and overrun it.

Cecilia remained silent and listened.

After I finished speaking, she asked me one question.

[What did my brother look like at that time?]

[He… couldn’t have been happier.]

[He’s still the worst. We have to stop him at all costs.]

When she said to stop her brother, I don’t think it was for discussion.

Because until now, Georg didn’t seem to listen to what Cecilia said. Perhaps she has Georg…

No, anything beyond that is in the realm of imagination. This should not be taken lightly.

If we go further to the center of the island, the number of monsters will increase.

The group of monsters that spotted us started moving all at once.

[Can you fight? Those monsters were probably beastkin.]

[I’d like to avoid it if possible, but…it’ll be alright.]

[If you can’t do it, just tell me. I’ll do it for you.]

I already have the blood of a lot of monsters in my hands. I’m not going to say anything nice about it now.

Besides, it must be harder for Cecilia to fight than it is for me.

Even though she was trying to do something about the relations.h.i.+p between elves and beastkn, she ended up having to kill the people she was supposed to protect. ?Ã₦ó?ĚȘ

[Greed, can you access the first-tier?]

『We can even use the secret technique. But, nothing beyond that』

[That’s enough! Change form into a black bow.]

『You’re doing fine, Fate』

Greed replied back to confirm. You’re such a worrier… With this much mental load, I can’t let the other me to replace me.

[Take my 10%.]

『Leave the aim to me. I’ll finish it in an instant without making them feel any pain.』

The black bow absorbed my status and grew ominously.

I pointed the fully grown black bow at the group of monsters.

!

The black lightning-like arrow that was released branched out like the roots of a tree and decimated away the entire group of monsters.

What remained was deep craters and gouged out trails.

An inorganic voice informed me about the status increase I got from a large amount of monsters. I felt that my Gluttony skill was pleased with the number of souls I had never eaten. I have to be careful about my other self, but I’m only halfway through coming to terms with my gluttony skill.

I thought I had it under control during the battle with Libra, but after being eaten by the G.o.d of failure, I returned to my shrewd skills again.

Cecilia, who didn’t know about this situation, was surprised when she saw the secret technique I used.

[What, that powerful attack?]

[Greed’s secret technique, b.l.o.o.d.y Ptarmigan.]

[It felt foreign, unlike spirit arts.]

[Greed is a Mortal Sin weapon, which is different from normal weapons. Georg probably has the same type of weapon.]

[If I remember correctly… my brother said that it was the sacred treasure Iritium.]

Georg ran away without showing the true strength of the black chakram. So it’s just a guess, but considering the performance of other Mortal Sin weapons, it wouldn’t be surprising if it had at least more power than the b.l.o.o.d.y Ptarmigan.

[You said we should stop him. But, it won’t be that easy.]

[…yeah.]

It is no ordinary task to deal with someone who not only has the Mortal Sin skill but also a Mortal Sin weapon. In the battles I’ve fought so far, I’ve acted together with one as my companion, so I understand it very well.

If you were to stand in their way as a complete enemy, there would be no one more troublesome than this.

『Fate! There’s going to be a collision!』

A violent impact sound echoed at the same time as Greed’s warning.

The earth shook violently, and the places where the islands collided rose up, creating a mountain range.

There were four shocks. This meant that all the islands were connected as expected.

[It looks like everything has settled down. What will you do now, Cecilia?]

Should we return to the holy city Orphen?

There may be some elf survivors.

Considering the overwhelming number of monsters and the fact that it fell in no time, that chance is slim.

[I’d like to go back somewhere nearby. Depending on the situation, I might even consider giving up.]

[I understand.]

[There’s a high ground that overlooks the holy city, so let’s move there.]

Cecilia knows the topography of Louise Island very well.

We proceeded to the higher ground with her guidance. Along the way, I felt that the intervals between encountering groups of monsters were becoming shorter.

Perhaps the monsters that overflowed from the holy city are about to scatter throughout Louise Island.

It was a series of battles, and by the time we finally reached the high ground, it’s nearing dusk.

That beautiful white wall had collapsed, and monsters were pouring out from its remains.

And the elf town in the center had been reduced to rubble, and even if I searched for signs, I couldn’t detect any elves.

Unlike me, Cecilia was searching for survivors using the spiritual power emitted by the elves. She should be able to conduct a more accurate search than I can.

[It’s no good… there’s not a single person left alive.]

[I wish there was an elf who managed to escape…]

[I wish so too, but…]

Cecilia and I had the same idea.

I never expected that only me, Cecilia, and Georg would be the only survivors of the holy city Orphen…

This was something I never expected when I was taken to the temple by the elf knights.

Cecilia wordlessly stared at the holy city Orphen for a while.

Too many things happened at once.

I can’t even wrap my head around the idea of ​​five islands being combined into one.

Still, we can’t stay on the high ground like this. This is because swarms of monsters attack constantly.

[I’m thinking of leaving Louise Island, but what do Cecilia plan to do?]

[I’ll go with you. My brother probably went to another island. If we go, we’ll probably go to Alice Island or Innes Island, where there are supposed to be elves.]

I nodded at Cecilia’s suggestion.

Chloe Island is a sea serpent stronghold, and if you believe what Georg said, Emma Island is probably in the same situation as Louise Island.

[Alice Island or Innes Island… which would be better? If possible, I’d like to go to a friendly place.]

[Then, I guess we should head to Innes Island. Alice Island is ruled by a warlike race called Dark Elves.]

[I see. Are the elves inhabiting Innes Island the same kind as you?]

[No, it’s ruled by a n.o.ble race called high elves.]

Belligerent or n.o.ble…I feel like it’s the ultimate choice.

According to Cecilia, the high elves should be easier to talk with, so we decided to head for Innes Island.

[I’ll concentrate for a moment and explore the high elf’s spiritual power.]

[It looks like it’s quite a distance away, but can you do it?]

In order to search for the surviving elves in the holy city Orphen, it was necessary to get close to this high ground. However, it was strange to be able to explore spiritual power beyond the island.

[High elves have very high spiritual power. If they gather in a group, you can tell even if they are far apart.]

[I see! Since I can also use spirits, I wonder if I can feel like Cecilia does?]

[It depends on your training. I’ll teach you while we’re on the move.]

Cecilia concentrated.

And I sensed the high elf’s spiritual power.

The direction seemed to be far east from here.

[Let’s go.]

I asked Cecilia as she started walking away.

[Is the reason high elves are so n.o.ble because they have high spiritual power?]

[Yes, that’s right. Maybe, as an elf, I might be treated as inferior to them.]

[If they’ll treat Cecilia like that, what about me?]

[Hmm…I think Fate will be fine in the special category.]

[Because I’m a human?]

[I’m glad you understand. Since Fate is here, I think we can talk to the high elves. I’m sure it won’t be possible for me to do it alone.]

I wonder if the high elves will really welcome me, a human.

I was the reason that brought ruin to Orphen, the holy city of Louise Island. If I hadn’t washed ash.o.r.e on this island, I wonder if the outcome would have been different.

Greed spoke to me as I felt a bit of anxiety.

『It’s not your own doing. Fate was just used as a piece.』

[I hope there aren’t any high elves like Georg.]

『Can there be any more people with mortal sin skills?』

[Who knows.]

I feel like sighing. I swallowed the urge and started heading east. Cecilia also seemed nervous. Yet we began the journey nonetheless.
