Chapter 1193 Lifting the Ban on Satiety Part 1

Yo, he dead!!! Or wait, was he really dead!? And wait some more, it’s not like I was the one who killed him, right!? Alright! Hen I don’t even give a damn! As long as my name won’t change red in the end, I couldn’t care less what happens with that chump!

「What shall you do now, Elder Sister? Your younger brother is being devoured right in front of you, you know?」

「No, you see, I wonder about that part. Seeing how this thing is trying to chew and swallow right now, I somehow doubt it that this guy is going to let something like that be the end of him……」

GOUBUSH!!!

Hmm, what was that? It seems that after swallowing its prey whole, the chest of the Demon of Slaughter started to bulge and swell unnaturally. …… It seemed to be as if it was trying to crush and grind something that was stuck in there, and what was struggling to get out of there before it would be too late…… Ah, oh yeah, and it all stopped now. So that must mean that this chump is dead. But I also managed to confirm that my player name was still not turning red, so it should be all good in my book.

「Oh, good to know. I was seriously going to freak out if I were to turn a Player Killer because of something like this……」

「Hey, that’s the risk you need to take when you are fighting others.」

「For someone who’s family member just died right in front of you, you seem to be pretty calm about this……」

I really wanted to say something more in here, but I ultimately decided to give it a rest. After all, it would not help our situation in the slightest, and it would even serve to complicate things even further. I guess that Pencilgton, Katsu and I really mix like oil and water, so it’s better to just go with the flow when it comes to certain things rather than trying to understand one another or correct our ways…… So just don’t see what you don’t want to see and don’t hear what you don’t want to hear.

However, this Slaughter Demon is something I certainly did not expect to see in here. But is it really going to be satisfied, eating one player like that……? I was secretly hoping that it might actually for the other two people, but then all of a sudden its whole body started to writhe strongly and started to change. So I guess that there is no stopping it from doing what it’s doing now.

「Slaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaugh …… !!」

The raised shoulder flesh changes its shape, and the texture changes to something different from the meat, looking as though it was now the hardening clay.

Its body, which was just like that of a flesh giant now, tightened and became equipped with a certain functional beauty. And the substance that looks like iron and bone that pierces from underneath its skin on the right arm took the shape of a sword…… When the demon’s convulsions are finally over, there is a knight standing in its place… No, a knight-shaped demon-person was standing right in front of us!

「Say, Pencilgton? How about trying to say something to that…… thing over there? I mean, it technically used to be your little bro, so…… Besides, I am already at the “Analysis Complete” stage, so count me out of this!」

「My money’s on the “Not enough … more, more …!” kind of a thing……」

「Slaaaaaaauuuuughteeeeeeeeeeeeerr!!!」

I see, it seems that the very nature of this thing is going to make trying to resolve this thing peacefully quite literally impossible to accomplish……!!

At that moment Pencilgton and I split into left and right in order to avoid the knight-demon that started to rush our way, all the while screaming and roaring in a strange way. And then there was a loud CRUSH! sound as the demon managed to crush into the Great Gate at full speed. But somehow, I really doubt that the demon managed to sustain any noticeable damage right there, seeing how huge and sturdy its flesh was a moment before. Also, it can be safely assumed that its internal organs were all intact, with nothing being damaged or destroyed. Assuming that it even had those in the first place.

Facing off against a genuine demon can be a scary experience, especially since we don’t know if this thing even has any weaknesses in the first place, not to mention that oversized sword it was brandishing around. As for us…… But wait, was it aiming for us just now? No! No, that’s not it! It was aiming for the Princess!

「As if I would let you do that, you giant idiottt!!!」

Utilizing the power of the Secret Skill “War Crushed Orphan” I manage to land a jab on this thing and send it away! How about that, you freaking walking kebab!

I managed to get in between the demon and the Princess, and sticking to the jabs landing at just the right places and at just the right time I was able to keep the creature at bay for a moment. Which is already quite the incredible feat in and out of itself when you stop to think about it for a moment. Normally, the sheer mass of this demon would make it unable for normal blows to stop it in its tracks, but those fists right now possess the power of the War Orphan!

「Slllllllloooooo …!?」

「Alright, Knockback !!」

BOOM! The pressure of the air explodes, and the demon’s body is pushed back once more. However, I thought that it would be possible to blow it towards the Great Gate once again, but this size is actually nothing compared to the creatures that I have encountered aboard the Leviathan…… No, wait, this thing actually managed to regain its composure so soon!? Does it have some sort of a special ability or what…… Or maybe, just maybe…… Is this its natural state……!?

「Just how much Vitality does this thing have……!?」
