Chapter 312 Greed Being Greedy
"Liz, Kayla Kuro.
Please deal with the small fry.
Greed, you take Faerora.
β¦
I would handle this noble demon personally."
Immediately after he spoke, he shot forward once more, turning into a streak of golden light that shot through the air, straight towards the incoming streak of green light that was the enraged demon, Lensa.
**BOOM!!
Their aura-clad fists met, resulting in a loud explosion that released a lime-coloured cloud of smoke, with their two figures shooting out of the cloud of smoke and crashing towards the ground in the distance.
Seeing Evan's weird reaction, Greed turned to Eliza and voiced out a question as he held up his sword.
"Does this guy have anything against noble demons or something? Cus Pride and I are kinda noble demons too."
"β¦"
Eliza remained silent as she gazed in the direction Evan went with a complicated look in her eyes, before flicking her fingers and activating her flower cannon skill.
The gigantic shoot emerged from the ground, towering over Eliza, as magic power began concentrating in the closed petals, drawing the attention of all who were gobsmacked by Evan's sudden actions.
Faerora instantly gave our orders and summoned her real battle weapon, a silver spear with golden inscriptions on it
However, the moment she did, she felt chills all over her body as Greed's gaze on her turned deep once more.
"So that's what I was sensing."
The high demon spoke as he stabbed Mammonas into the ground, taking slow casual steps towards Faerora as she felt part of the strength in her body suddenly disappear forcing her to weakly drop to one knee.
One of the higher level middle ranked members dashed towards Greed in an attempt to attack him, however, the high demon stretched out his arm and caught the neck of the person, clenching his fist and squashing it in the next second.
Just as they saw one of their stronger members easily perish at the hands of the Deadly Sin Demon, the lower-ranked members of the demonic hand weren't given time to process it as Eliza's flower cannon was done charging.
***WOOOONGGG!!!!
The beam of concentrated magic power shot out of the blooming flower bud, crashing into the bodies of the level 200 and above middle-ranked members present and knocking them away, before going on to instantly rip the lower levelled members to shreds.
At the same time, a golden pearl of lightning appeared in the air as the pseudo authority of the great lightning spirit was activated, with golden bolts of lightning and flames raining down from the sky and onto the demonic hand members who had been held in place by their own shadows.
While this was happening, Greed was walking towards the wounded Faerora, concentrating all of his power on her to keep her weak enough that she would not be able to move.
This was the only reason why the other members of the demonic hand were unaffected by his idiosyncrasy.
"That spear of yours, it looks nice."
"I want it."
"Give it to me."
As he spoke, he grabbed the spear and pulled it out of her hands, wrapping it with demonic energy and using his finger to draw a rune with his magic power before he tossed it into his spatial pouch.
**BAAMM!!!
The high demon wordlessly slammed his fist into the side of Faerora's face right after, sending her body flying through the air and into the giant hole in front of him.
"Hmmβ¦let's see what's down there."
Greed jumped into the hole and flicked his fingers, causing the sword he had dropped on the ground to levitate into the air, before flying into the hole right after him.
Left behind, Eliza took note of where the hole in the ground was before returning her focus to the battle in front of her.
She unfurled the Memoria and held it with her right hand, swinging the spear-tipped staff in a wide horizontal arc as she activated a newly acquired skill.
"Cutting Wave."
It was a skill that allowed her to cut things from a distance using her energy, simple, but deadly nonetheless.
(Note: The Memoria Would be referenced as a spear when she's using it as one and referred to as a staff when she's using it as one.)
A wave of green magic power shot out from her spear, slicing through the air as it made its way towards its targets, with nearly half of them managing to duck to avoid it while the others were granted brand new slash wounds from the wave of magic power.
"It's just like Evan's aura slash.
πrπ¦π¦πebππ€vel.cπ€π’
How about I add my skill's effect to it?"
The girl created a barrier to block the great sword that threatened to cleave her in two from behind, twisting the spear in her hands and stabbing towards its wielder as the spear phased through the barrier with ease and punctured a hole in the great sword-wielding demonic hand member's body.
She then activated her child of life skill, using one of her daily charges as the green aura of life surrounded her body in a similar way to when Evan used the blessing of destruction.
With her arm coated in this aura, she formed her palm into a knife hand and swung it backwards, hitting the neck of the person she had impaled with her spear and severing it from his head.
"My skill is stronger? Or is it that my control over the essence of life is getting better?"
She gazed at her bloodstained palm as she twirled her spear around her right hand, flicking off the blood on her left palm before grabbing the spear with it and thrusting forward.
The target of the spear thrust titled their head to the side in an attempt to avoid it, however, Eliza moved her spear along with him, turning the thrust into a slash that cut into her target's torso with ease.
"Guh!"
The demonic hand member grunted in pain, even so, he grit his teeth and stretched out his hands to grab Eliza's arm, probably with the intention of activating some skill that required physical contact.
Naturally, there was no way that Eliza was going to let him get to her so easily.
