Vile Evil Hides Under The Veil-Novel

Pearls of gluttony.

It looked as if these pearls were precious finds with their creamy, extra-smooth texture. They didn't contain any of the vile vibes that were associated with creatures of gluttony.

These pearls felt as pure as morning dew. They exuded a faint light that made one aware of the mystic runic patterns inscribed over them.

Eren smiled in wonder at the pearls. He saved all of the pearls inside his Sansara Storage except one. He showed the pearl in his hand to the other participants before speaking up.

"See… this is what I have done to them. I have turned them into fine pieces of art. This thing looks beautiful, doesn't it?"

The participants, who saw Eren showing them the pearl of gluttony with a casual smile, felt extremely aggravated by what they were made to see. A fear of being turned into the same pearl was creeping on them.

The surviving participants felt like they needed to do whatever they could to kill the vile creature who had used such a nefariously demonic Ability. Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to find peace even if they were taken out of Sansara World.

"You… you will pay for this."

One of the participants said before clenching the runic spear that he had received it from Sansara World. The participants who were left alive were of a similar opinion. As a result, they decided to give it their all to kill the man whose strange abilities could give even cultists a run for their money.

'Let's fucking use weapon attacks over elemental spells. Focus on frontal assaults over mid- and long-range offensives. Don't allow this man to use any more of his vile powers on us.'

pαпdα Йᴏνê|,сòМ One of the participants became the de facto leader of the surviving participants by leading the charge. Also, the other participants saw that the elemental attacks would simply be absorbed by the spectral mouths within the gluttony domain. Thus, they preferred dealing with Eren the difficult way.

'Tch. I hate dealing with smartasses. For once, I want to fight some dumb fucks.'

Eren clicked his tongue when he realized the participants were preventing themselves from using their elemental spells to approach him. The butcher sighed before using his movement spell to meet their charge head-on.

The participants started attacking Eren in batches to avoid collateral damage. The close combat specialists were separated from the mid-range rankers. The rangers were made to keep their distance from someone like Eren.

This was the ideal way the participants could fight with Eren while ensuring their safety. Ideal– at least by their current situation.

Blitz. Swoosh. Clang.

Eren blocked the swordsman's attack with one of his daggers and ducked backwards to divert the sword. To avoid being attacked by the swordsman from the back, he ducked backward and diverted the flying sword slash aimed at him. This caused the attack to hit the female participant.

The participants inadvertently started engaging in friendly fire with Eren blocking, dodging, and diverting their attacks just at the right time. In the most efficient manner possible.

The old sinner knew that offense was the most effective defense. To attack the participants, he began using his own elemental spells.Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on N(o)vᴇl(F)ire.net

Close Combat Class.

Blitz Shield.

Wind Blade Tornado.

Just when the spear-wielding ranker was about to target Eren's shoulder using his weapon, he found out that the butcher had used his defensive spell. He also summoned his wind-element offensive spell around him to give him an omnidirectional offensive.

Ranger Class.

Wind-Fire Shards.

Eren used Wind-Fire Shards in conjunction with the Wind Blade Tornado. As a result, the gales generated by the Wind Blade Tornado became carriers for the Wind-Fire Shards which attacked the butcher's opponents all around him.

Sedating Gaze.

"Aaaaaargh!"

Eren managed to land a blow using his Ocular Ability. He then used Blink to get away from the backlash just in the nick of time. He was yet to receive any injury despite the number of attackers he was tackling simultaneously.

Perfect Projection.

This was a spatial spell Eren had seldom used despite practicing it for quite some time. He never had the opportunity to use this spell. But since he was facing so many talented opponents at once, this spell's effects became sought-after.

Perfect Projection was a support-type spell that could be used both for offense and defense. It allowed Eren to manipulate the spatial fabric around him. With the spell's help, Eren could spatially shift the projectiles aimed at him and make them miss their intended target.

Additionally, he could use spatial manipulation to make the flying weapon attacks and projectiles aimed at him hit a completely different target. Of course, the spell required the utmost concentration and effort on Eren's part. So he needed to keep his other elemental spells in check before he could use Perfect Projection.

What's more? The butcher used Perfect Projection with another spatial spell of his– Dynamic Distance, which allowed him to constrict or stretch the spatial fabric around him. The flying weapon slashes and projectiles aimed at him would look like they had been forcefully elongated before being redirected to the participants themselves.

One had to say that Eren's devouring of ether-sub-class rankers from Blood Punisher Force had helped him a lot in using these space-element spells. After all, to use the spells this way, he needed a certain level of proficiency in the space element.

Aqua Whips.

The butcher could not be stopped with his two daggers and various spells. He started changing the landscape of the battle by using his elemental spells just at the right time. He employed optimal amounts of mana to attack and defend.

The battlefield started to drink more blood as Eren kept on fighting. This was the blood of his enemies that he fertilized the soil with. The ground also started getting riddled with several craters as he faced multiple opponents at the same time.

When he attacked, his enemies were injured. When he defended himself, they couldn't touch him. And yet the killing machine himself felt that he was not using all of his potential.

Eren's enemies wouldn't believe it. But he was struggling with switching between classes and selecting various spells to suit them. A struggle he knew he had to go through because there was no way around it.

Thus, Eren decided that he would make use of the gluttony pearls as soon as he found some breather.
