Chapter 183 Angel Mode

Myne was in a good mood .

She’s been spinning around me for a while now .

[Is this some sort of ritual or something?]

[I’m trying to get into whichever way Fate is looking at . ]

[No no, you’re trying way too hard to do that . It’s weird . ]

[Un? Sloth said it would do me good to do so…]

Again with this “Sloth said it” .

Recently, Myne had been acting really strange .

When asked about it, she always replied that it was by Sloth’s suggestion .

[Don’t tell me Sloth also told you to do that hugging earlier?]

[Nn? That was just me . Actually I may want to do it again real soon]

[Fine… just don’t break my spine next time . ]

[I will keep that in mind . ]

If she’s looking away from me like that, I have a feeling that she’ll forget it anyway .

I guess she wants to hug real tight from time to time .

She’s planning to stay with me for a very long time after all, so I should at least understand her .

[Ero hasn’t come back yet?]

[Yes, she hasn’t . She said that she’ll return once she gets ahold of the means to travel to Gallia . ]

[Isn’t she just eating the grass on the road somewhere?]

[Of course she isn’t]

[What if she’s been kidnapped?]

[Don’t get ahead of yourself . ]

She possessed a mortal sin skill and was fairly strong in combat .

Only those with power surpassing that could hope to kidnap Eris .

What first came to mind was the sacred beastkin .

Eris had this past connection with the sacred beastkin Libra .

I still don’t know what happened between the two . Eris didn’t seem to want to talk about it either .

When I saw her showing such a moment of weakness whenever Libra is involved, I couldn’t get myself to ask .

Still, I do know about two things .

Libra has another nickname; Tuner .

And the divine decree he received was most likely to [eliminate anything that can cause disturbance upon the world . ]

If it’s true, then Libra wouldn’t stand still seeing that Gallia continent had risen to the sky .

At the same time, we as the holders of Mortal Sin skill…

While talking to Myne, I was continuously keeping watch for any sign of magic power that approached Hauzen .

So I would know if Eris returned .

[Fate!]

[Yeah, this magic power signature belongs to Eris . ]

Speak of the devil .

Eris was heading toward Hauzen at tremendous speed .

Moreover, there’s another magic power signature following her .

[This is…don’t tell me…]

[Libra, without a doubt . ]

Why is Libra there with Eris!?

Recalling how Eris said that she wanted to get rid of Libra herself this time, she must’ve hated that guy very much .

Then why?

Eris always acted unusual around Libra . She said that she’d fight him, but her fearfulness was obvious even to me .

Could she really partnered up with a person who caused her so much trauma?

[Unbelievable…]

[But there is no mistake . Those are Libra and Eris’ magic power . ]

Myne immediately rushed back to her room to pick up Sloth .

I had been placing my hand on the handle of the black sword on my waist all this time .

At times like this, a certain reliable partner with a particularly bad mouth would already give me some advice .

However, there’s only silence now .

In the last battle――fighting against the sacred beast Aquarius, I lost Greed .

Libra was the person who set up that battle .

Now I have my own grudge against him .

Moreover, he also tried to exterminate Hausen entirely . He may have thought that it’s the only way to prevent the Door to His land to open up .

[Fai! This sign!]

[It’s just as you thought . ]

Roxy, probably noticing as well, rushed to me .

She was already decked out in her battle gear, ready to fight at any time .

[Eris-sama… Why is she together with Libra?]

[I also want to know why . ]

[Indeed . It is nearly unthinkable for those two to actually act together . ]

The two were approaching Hausen from the south .

I tried to look for them from the hill where my mansion is . Can’t see them yet .

[Is Libra aiming for Hausen again?]

[Who knows . The door to His land is already opened . What lies here is only the underground city Grandeur . There are only ghosts who refused to be resurrected there…]

It’s even stranger that he moves around together with a mortal sin skill holder like Eris . But according to Raine, there was lots of valuable ancient information left inside the underground city Grandeur .

Is he coming here because he wants to keep that ancient knowledge a secret?

No, if that’s the case he would’ve acted much sooner .

It’s simply too hard to understand Libra’s goal, no matter how hard I think about it .

[We can’t have Libra inside Hausen . Let’s meet them outside . ]

[Yes . ]

When I was about to run, someone called me from behind .

[Then I will stay behind as an answering machine again . ]

When I turned around, there was Mimir .

Today as well, she’s wearing a neat looking maid uniform .

[I’m sorry, again . ]

[It’s alright . I’ll be watching Fate-sama’s heroic figure from here . I’m no longer a Holy Knight after all…and not even a warrior . ]

[Mimir… . . ]

[Come now, I’m but your maid servant . And also your sister . ]

She gave me a maid salute with a slight smile on her face .

[Fai! Hurry up!]

I heard Roxy urging me to go .

[Brother, come on now, go forth!]

[Yeah, I’m off . ]

[Be careful on your way . ]

Like the maid to her lord… and like a sister to her brother, Mimir bowed deeply as she saw me off .

I stroked her head gently in return . It’s not like this is our final farewell .

[I leave Hausen in your care . ]

[Yes, as you wish . ]

I nodded back after Mimir raised her head and nodded .

Then I turned toward Roxy, who patiently waited for me .

The signs of the two magic powers had been getting closer and closer .

[Sorry for the wait . Let’s go . ]

[Alright . ]

Making full use of our stats, we rushed out .

If we use the main road, we’ll probably injure the passersby though .

[Let’s go through the rooftops . ]

[I suppose that is for the best…kyah]

Roxy let out a little yelp .

She’s not even falling or tumbling . What in the world is she…

When I turned to her, there was already the crimson haired Snow latching on Roxy’s back .

[I’m playing too～!]

Perhaps she had misunderstood us running on top of the roofs as playing some sort of a game .

[What a bully to leave me out!]

[We are not playing here . ]

[Really?]

Snow looked back at me while tilting her head .

[Yes . We are leaving Hausen to head south . Where Libra is . ]

[Libra… . . ]

Upon hearing that name, Snow’s expression instantly changed .

Her countenance became more alert .

And she grabbed hold on Roxy even tighter .

[Let’s fuse!]

[Eeeeh, right here right now!?]

[Goo—-!]

[I haven’t prepared my heart yet . ]

It was a forceful fusion without waiting for Roxy’s agreement .

Wrapped by dazzling light, Roxy Angel Mode appeared with a bang!!

Unlike me, she had four white wings .

And an angelic halo shone above her head .

She looks divine no matter how many times I look .

[Fai! Can you stop gawking at me and get going already?]

[Ah sorry . I just think that you look beautiful]

[… . I am glad to hear that, but it is not the time for this kind of thing!]

[I know . But now that you’re in that form, why not make a full use out of it?]

[I guess it cannot be helped . ]

Roxy flapped her wings and started floating in the air . She then swooped in and hugged me .

My feet slowly lifted off from the rooftop .

This floaty feeling is somewhat comfortable to me .

Flying in the sky feels good no matter how many times you have experienced it!

[Alright then, I shall go full speed ahead!]

[Please do!]

It’ll be even more exciting from here .

The reason was simple .

Roxy had been training herself to be more proficient in using this Angel Mode of hers ever since she first obtained it .

I helped her in this training, so I knew how it was pretty well .

Dooooooooooooooo!!

A tremendous air pressure hit me .

Sound of air being broken through at a piercing speed of sound echoes through Hausen .

If I didn’t have the protection of Area E, my body would’ve probably turned into scattered pulp .

But with this, we should be able to reach Eris and Libra in no time at all .

I need to know what in the world is going on .

The two could’ve been fighting at the moment . Libra had never really hesitated after all .

It’s always good to be careful . I thought so as I clenched my grip on the black sword’s handle .
