The sword cloaked in black lightning surged toward Lowell. The reason the originally golden lightning now carried a foreboding black hue— Was because I had activated the [Darkness] skill, which turns all skills pitch black. ‘Double the final damage is just a bonus.’ Bzzzzzztt!! A sword imbued with lightning so intense it felt like it…

“You… how the hell do you know that…!” Lowell’s face twisted violently. Rage, shame, anxiety, confusion, fear, despair. Emotions that couldn’t be described flooded her expression. It was a natural reaction. Making a contract with a demon was already a grave sin, but a contract that bound the entire family? That was grounds for extermination….

Shake, shake. I woke up from sleep, startled by an unexpected vibration. “…?” I couldn’t help but be confused. Someone was looking down at me. And they were sitting right on top of my stomach. ‘What is this? A ghost?’ The body was oddly round, and the left upper side of the face stuck out…

Luna and Rezé gasped. It was a shocking story, so their reaction was only natural. In contrast, Granny Peggy remained calm. Her widened eyes had already returned to normal. “They killed the woodcutter. What do you mean by that?” “The woodcutter probably never even made it out of the mine. The Count must have killed…

“Personal training?” “Hm? Ah, yes. She’s been focused on training recently. Something about… feeling like she’ll face the Snake Mask again?” “Any reason for that?” “She said it was a gut feeling.

Isn’t that it?” Luna gave me a sideways glance. The moment I saw her face, I knew. Luna’s signature move,…

“Well… he is his son.” Yuridia replied with some disinterest. It wasn’t exactly unusual for a father and son to resemble each other. “Did you not hear what I just said? I said he was the spitting image! If it was just a simple resemblance, this old woman wouldn’t be saying something like this!” Was…

“The story spread quickly. Quite a few people came. Most of them just checked the beast’s corpse and went back, though.” “Was it because the beast looked more unimpressive than expected?” “That was part of it, but mostly because it was such a typical story.” Stories of knights slaying beasts and saving people were as…

Crash! The cat’s food bowl flew through the air. It was because of Adel and Whale’s rampage as they charged in, demanding a duel. Luna caught the airborne bowl and shouted. “Hey! You two, cut it out already!” “What’s with this mean-eyed lady?” “…Fine. Then let this lady kill you once and for all!” With…

Alex, Raymon, Yuridia, Victoria. The main characters of this game, and the party members I chose to defeat the final boss.
