Chapter 75 – Being Honest

As I watched Norden falling down as a corpse, the inorganic voice started to sound.

《Gluttony Skill Activated》
《Durability+2.0E(+8), Strength+1.8E(+8), Magic+2.1E(+8), Spirit+2.4E(+8), Agility+1.4E(+8) will be applied to your stats》

So this was Area E stats looked like. Ehhh!? There was no addition to the skill…….Under the onslaught of gluttony skill on my mind, I couldn’t help but to feel that there was something wrong with this Norden Alistair.

I didn’t know why, but I saw a white space.

I wonder why, but I felt like I’ve been here before. I tried to remember, but it stuck at the corner of my head unable to surface.
Looking around the pure white world, while trying to remember, a little girl suddenly appeared.
The girl was also white. It won’t be an exaggeration to say that she’s a part of this pure white world.
The girl looked at me, and sighed.

[There, I told you to not overdo it…..there is a limit with me alone.]

She said so, pointing the white ground under my feet. There was darkness under the thin membrane. Voices of people carrying grudges could be heard.

I instinctively understood, the world below was like hell. I saw it once before, I remembered now. This was the space I once saw in my dream.

I also knew the girl standing before me. This person was,

[You are…. The little girl inside the machine angel that I defeated.]

[En, that’s right. I’m glad you remember. This is the first time, I can talk to you properly.]

She showed a smile for the first time on her previously expressionless face, then told me her name.

[I’m Luna. That’s right! I need to thank you.]

[For what?]

Luna tilted her head while making a disgusted face, then said in a serious manner.

[Thank you, for killing me.]

What should I do, I was at a loss for word. Having killed her left both good and bad things for me, and one of them was that I felt a sense of guilt for killing her…..
When she thanked me, to be honest, I really had no idea if I should be happy about it.

[Don’t make such a face….if I say it’s good, then it’s good.]

[….even so I…. can’t say that it’s all good.]

[What a stubborn guy. Well, I knew that much about you since I’ve been watching from here.]

What’s with that…..I felt like my privacy had been invaded without me knowing.
Luna kept talking, ignoring how I really feel. This one-sided way of talking reminded me of Myne. Even their face looked similar.

[Wait a second, are you listening?]

[Yeah, so what is this place?]

Luna, seemingly alright with me not listening, answered me either way.

[This is the spiritual space where the souls of those eaten by the gluttony gathered. And this white space is the product of my power.]

[Hmmm]

[That face!? You don’t really get it, do you?! Fine, thanks to me creating this white space, you are less likely to be affected by the gluttony skill. Now is that the right attitude for everything I’ve done for you?!]

Could it be……in retrospect, the gluttony skill did calm down for a long time after eating Machine Angel Haniel.
Although I also did some training to withstand gluttony skill, I always thought that it was strange. So this is the reason why.
No way, she’s been protecting me all this time……..

[Why did you do it?]

[I told you already. As a thank for killing me. That was the reward. ………however, I’m reaching my limit. I can’t become your pillar anymore.]

With her red eyes, Luna sadly looked around the white space.
Without me noticing, while talking to her, the white space was shrinking.

[You should not eat the Tenryu. If you do, then I can’t help you with my power. You’ll cease to become yourself……for sure.]

But I couldn’t stop just yet. When I’m about to ask how to get out of this place, the floor below me disappeared, and I fell down to the emptiness.

[Uaaaaaaaaa]

It was a red haired stranger who get ahold of me when I’m about to fall into the darkness. He seemed older than me, and was quite tall.
He pulled me up by the hand, while seemingly under a very bad mood.

[Good grief….when you didn’t answer, I never thought that you’d be in this space. This me is at my limit. The prison around the Tenryu will dissolve soon.]

[That voice…..could you be Greed!?]

[Ah, that’s right. This former body is only temporary. If you want to say thank then say it to that girl over there. She’s the one who called me here.]

The seemingly annoyed Greed pointed towards Luna. I wonder if they knew to each other, and it’s weird to actually see his face.
But perhaps it’s because I always saw Greed as a weapon, so seeing his face right now was something new.

[Oi, don’t stare at me like that.]

[……could it be, this was how you looked in past?]

[Chi. I don’t really care about that kind of thing anymore. Come, it’s time.]

That’s, right. Greed should know how to return.

[Greed, lend me your strength]

[Naturally. That’s there reason this me came here in the first place.]

I then said to Luna.

[I’ll still have to beat Tenryu. I can’t just let the masterless Tenryu be as it is.]

Luna didn’t say anything else. She merely nodded.
Greed offered his hand to me, which I shook. We were wrapped in a glowing light, and before I knew it, I’m back at where I was――Gallia. I grasped the black sword firmly in my right hand.

[So we’re back…..]

『Right. This took me some time and effort.』

[Sorry.]

The Tenryu was still restrained by the crosses of light in the sky. However, the prison was weakening and seemed to be about to dissolve. If it deteriorated further, it would only be a matter of time before it’s broken through.

My eyes suddenly caught Norden’s corpse on the ground. Eating that guy didn’t give benefit other than stats. Being a mortal sin holder, he should’ve held some high level skills.
Greed answered to my doubt via 《Mind Reading》.

『That’s just a puppet. Apparently, Envy is actually the one in control. I wonder where that thing got such an ability? Controlling other people……Well, maybe from that person, of course』

[Then I can’t just leave it alone.]

I raised the black sword, planning to destroy the black bayonet, but Greed stopped me before I could.

『It’s no use, don’t waste your energy. A Mortal Sin weapon is indestructible. Even another Mortal Sin weapon couldn’t destroy it.』

[But, if we leave it be like this]

I hit it with my black sword, sending it flying across Gallia. If it flew away over there, the puppetmaster should have a hard time finding it again.

[There it goes, flying away.]

『Hahaha, I’m dying to know what Envy is thinking as it fly like that. Well done!』

In the sky, the restraints over Tenryu were finally broken. The Tenryu was released.
Losing its master, the injured Tenryu was furious, and it tried to get away. I knew it, if I let it be, it may go to the fortress city Babylon and wreak havoc.

[Let’s do it, Greed.]

Let’s go on a rampage for the last time. Raise everything to the highest notches, and bring down that monumental being from the sky.
I feel like it’ll be great if I can do that.

  1. Dang. It feels like we’re racing towards an ending… but we’re definitely not. Too many loose threads to be pulled to not have more after this.

  2. Thanks for the chapter.

    I knew it Norden wasn’t a Sin Skill holder. But then, who is the true wielder of Envy? Eris maybe? or there is a set of Sin Skill holders and a set of Sin Weapons?

  4. I bey greed envy and sloth where sin skill users like fate eris and mine and probably Luna and where turn in to sin weapons or there are seaven weapons and seaven users or the weapons was a metho to prevent that the sin skill users are reborn by sealing their soul in to weapons

  5. Correct me if I’m wrong but the amount added to his stats is only 200 million right? Ain’t that weaker then his capped stats before he fought Envy’s wielder?

  7. Lol so Gluttony can use scientific notation!!! hhh. Ok but on a more serious note, Norden’s stats are E8, which s only at the level of hundreds of millions, now this is strange because before Fate supposedly entered Area E, his stats were much stronger than this, being at 999 million, being 1 shot of a billion on all 5 stats, the were even stated to start increasing again when he entered Area E. Now I can think of 2 possibilities, but we won’t know until this whole Area E business is cleared up, but the possibilities are;

    1. Getting to Area E is not reliant on stats, but some other condition(s) (So are stats pointless then?). Anyways, for this possibility it will explain why even though Fate’s stats were more than 4 times, Norden stats, he was still weaker and losing, though it doesn’t explain why he didn’t suddenly wreck Norden when he entered Area E.

    Events that support this option, include; Fate’s stat sheet before Area E and Norden stat sheet after he dies, along with the time when Fate mentioned that his stats were originally more than Norden before he sacrificed some for the technique that hurt the Tenryu (though I don’t buy this, since Fate could not use appraisal on Norden then how could he know his stats, unless something changed after he entered Area E, which is unlikely since its a skill that blocks the appraisal). Event that disagree with this option is the fact that he only enters Area E after his stats start to break past the level cap

    2. There is some kind of mix-up. For this option, the mix-up can be in one of 2 places. Either with the amount of stats absorbed by Fate, rather than E8, it should have been E9, making 1 billion the level cap for getting to Area E, OR Fate’s stat sheet shown when he hit the level cap. rather than 999 million, it should have been 99 million. It did show him absorbing stats in the 100 million on all 5 places, but perhaps after the 99 million he hit the level cap and nothing else was absorbed

    Events that support this option, include Fate’s surprise at the stats he absorbed from Norden, saying something like, so this is what stats from Area E look like (lol, though this might more have been because of the scientific notation), Norden being much stronger than Fate in the initial fight, and the fact that with this option, the stats still dictate strength.

    But in the end, the problem still remains the same, we are given barely any explanation on these things, and even given conflicting information and can only speculate.

  8. I suppose we might have just gotten confirmation that Greed was indeed formerly human, and that sin skill users can be transformed into weapons, and since he’s said they are indestructible, I wonder if that means that sin skill is permanently sealed and cannot have a next generation.

    Haniel, well I guess Luna is back again, but the disappearing white room was certainly ominous, those this mean she’s finally fallen into the torment? I hope she’s at least able to protect herself.

    So Fate really did forget about the hell he sends his victims to, somehow that makes me very annoyed, it’s too thoughtless given the gravity of the situation.

  9. So Envy was the mastermind all along? Seems the weapons are able to control humans as puppets and even give them stats, or maybe it’s unique to Envy. But what I don’t understand as usual is Fate’s actions. Dude is really beginning to irk me.

    1. Greed told him Envy is the mastermind controlling Norden as a puppet, and what does he do? He knocks Envy away into some random place. Dude WTF does that achieve, isn’t Gallia supposed to be overflowing with monsters. Doesn’t that mean there’s a high chance that a monster will pick up this weapon, since there are those that use weapons, and just become the next puppet. It might be worse because this might mean the monster can lead other monsters into a massive death march. Is there any sense to his actions?? is there? is there? (lol Huang Shaotian). Anyways, the plot might protect this stupid action or not, we’ll see.

    2. Luna’s just told him, I’ve been protecting your mind from gluttony don’t kill the Tenryu, what does he plan to do right after the first stupid action, of course another stupid action. He says something “cool” like this

    Let’s go on a rampage for the last time. Raise everything to the highest notches, and bring down that monumental being from the sky. I feel like it’ll be great if I can do that.

    Umm, brah, it will not be great if you can do that, as soon as you defeat the Tenryu, you’ll certainly go on a rampage, but you won’t die like you’re thinking, NO, you’ll do something much “cooler”, you’ll run for the nearest city and destroy every human there, including Roxy and rinse and repeat. You’ll certainly become a “cool” demon lord
