Chapter 173: Corridor of Remembrance
Chapter 173 – Corridor of Remembrance
Trying to defuse the sudden heavy mood, Kairos laughed merrily . The way he speaks might be a bit frank, but he’s a good guy .
[My bad . Fate, I have something else to take care of . ]
As he continued to walk, Kairos put his hand on my shoulder when he walked by .
[After this, we are going to infiltrate the facility . I heard from an insider that this will be the only chance to do it . ]
[That sounds good, but why are you telling that to a stranger like me?]
I’m after all, just someone who popped out of nowhere .
[After all this time we spend together, surely we don’t count as strangers anymore, right?]
[Then, why?]
[I just have a hunch that we have a similar goal . And it has something to do with Gallia . Your eyes briefly changed color when I mentioned about infiltrating the facility . That sign alone is enough for me . ]
[Isn’t that a bit too easy?]
[Is it? I’ve lived like this my whole life . For me, it’s good if you are a trustworthy person . But of course, reality won’t be that convenient . ]
Kairos turned away afterward, talking to Myne this time .
[I will return Sloth to you, as promised . ]
[Alright . With this, I’m free to do what I want . ]
Myne said as she received the black axe from Kairos and stashed it on her back .
[Oi oi, don’t tell me you want a rematch?]
[Of course . I’ll bring your head back home . ]
[This is really hopeless…]
Turning his face up to the sky, Kairos sighed in defeat .
But it wasn’t for long, as he immediately broke into a laugh .
[Fine . Next time you really should go all out against me . Well, the winner will still be me though . ]
[I will win next time . ]
Despite saying all that to Kairos, Myne’s tone sounded soft to me .
I felt uncomfortable to be stuck between these two weirdos .
The two just declared their intention so openly to each other .
Turned out Myne always had some screws loose in weird places .
But well, that’s exactly how I knew her .
When I unintentionally laughed,
[What’s so funny?]
She stared at me with such pressure . Nothing less from the Wrath skill holder .
But anyways, the atmosphere was no longer as heavy as when we first left Babylon . And it’s all thanks to Kairos .
But Greed who had been watching us silently suddenly rang an alarm .
[You guys, stop playing pretend friends . Incoming enemies ahead . ]
[As expected from Greed-sama ey?]
[Enough with the flattery . Kairos…don’t overdo it . ]
A huge flock of monsters visibly spread in the distance . Several machine angels were mixed in among them .
According to Kairos, this was just a patrol force regularly sent by the empire .
[Guess we’ll have a bit of a warm up before we arrive at our destination . Myne, Fate, can you keep up?]
[ [ Of course ] ]
I had Kairos to lend me a greatsword .
Even then, I’m still worried whether the weapon could withstand my power or not . Well, the weapon I’m used to wielding is in Kairos’ hand right now . As it is now, this greatsword was the only weapon tough enough for me to use .
Grave tension ran through my spine .
I never thought that battling without Greed… would be this uneasy…
This made me realize that I’ve been relying on him way too much .
[We must crush them all in here . Otherwise, the survivors will attack Babylon . ]
After drawing out the black sword, Kairos immediately switched to bow form .
He then allowed Greed to consume his status, causing the bow to grow larger .
With a fluent, natural movement, he released《b.l.o.o.d.y Ptarmigan》 .
The power was way greater than what I knew of . Not to mention that from his countenance, Kairos didn’t seem to expend a lot of status for that shot .
In other words, I hadn’t utilized Greed to his maximum capacity .
Kairos who pretty much deleted half of the enemy forces with that shot started to show signs of enjoyment from consuming that many .
[Kuuu~! It’s nice to eat that many all at once after all . This is why b.l.o.o.d.y Ptarmigan is soo good . ]
[Don’t get lax! There are still half of them . ]
[Yeah, yeah, Greed is always such a worrywart . ]
[Tsk . ]
It was only the first strike . But the result was already very devastating .
The flock fell into chaos and began to disperse
[Alright, here is our chance!]
Both me and Myne ran following Kairos .
It’s such a great occasion . Just when I was thinking to test whether my gluttony skill could work in this world .
Firstly, let’s try killing something that I could afford .
An orc immediately lost its head to my slash .
It certainly had fallen over and died . But I didn’t feel anything, nor I heard the familiar voice informing me that the gluttony skill had been activated .
I tried killing more monsters, but the result was still the same .
Also, experience spheres flew to me, but it didn’t increase my level either .
Well, what was I thinking? This wasn’t the real world after all .
[Fate, why are you dozing off like that? If you have something to think about, do it after we’re done . ]
Kairos reprimanded me while squaring off with a machine angel .
Looking at Myne, she was fighting like usual .
I suppose this flock wasn’t even enough to be considered as a warm up for her .
Despite the fact that they filled the horizon when they appeared before us, we still wiped them out pretty quickly .
[Yosh, that’s the last one . Fate, Myne, thanks for the hard work . ]
Kairos praised the both of us as he beheaded a monster that I had never seen before .
[That’s… Just what kind of monster that is?]
[Beats me . This is probably a new breed . I keep seeing them among the flock recently . They’re pretty tough . ]
He added a quiet [for now] at the end .
[When I first encountered them, they’re at most as strong as orcs . But nowadays they’re as bad as the machine angels .
[Is it really that bad?]
[But they’re really delicious for me . After all, for those with gluttony skill, the stronger the food, the better, right?]
I’m having trouble replying to that .
But Kairos didn’t really care about that, as he’s busy rampaging around .
Did he get affected by the influence of Gluttony skill?
The more I think about it, the more clear to me that Kairos was willingly eating the soul of those he defeated .
[Alright . It’s just a little more walk, and we should be able to see it . ]
He said a little walk, but Kairos and Myne’s walking speed weren’t actually normal to begin with .
Soon we arrived at the depths of Gallia .
I was expecting valleys of greenery and meadows . But there was no such thing here .
All I could see was black research facility .
The scale was very large . Comparable to the underground city below Hauzen .
It was so huge I couldn’t exactly consider it just a research facility .
[Are we going to infiltrate that place?]
[Yep . ]
Again he showed me how cool of a person he was . Kairos apparently had no such thing called nervousness .
I turned my sight toward Myne .
She would be our biggest problem . I simply couldn’t believe that she’s capable of any form of stealth .
She’d just broken through the front gate and entered . It was always like that when we travelled together .
But I actually found her looking anxious . It was all over her face in fact .
[What are you looking at? I can certainly do better than you . ]
[Really? Looks like you’re not up for it though . ]
[Even if I look like this, I’m still the one handpicked to a.s.sa.s.sinate Kairos . ]
Myne replied proudly .
But looking sideways, I saw Kairos smirked .
If I had to make a guess, it’s either she challenged him head on, or that she flopped her stealth ambush and thus was forced to fight him directly .
[Well, it’ll be fine as long as we stay quiet . The stage has been set up in advance for us . You two just need to keep silent . ]
He alternated between me and Myne .
[Where’s your answer!]
[ [ Yessir! ] ]
[Yosh, good answer . Okay, let’s go]
With Kairos leading us, we went to infiltrate the research facility . ]
