Chapter 229

"Lightning Strike!"

Kasumigaoka Utaha opened the Devil's Book, and a pillar of azure lightning, like a waterfall from heaven, descended and struck Scorpio's black carapace with a bang!

Crackle!!

The black carapace turned red-hot under the high temperature!

And was then pierced straight through!

Purple blood sprayed wildly, drenching the earth!

But the raw, red flesh was exposed for only an instant before it grew rapidly, covering itself with the black carapace once more.

Kasumigaoka Utaha's expression stiffened, and she said somewhat discouraged, "It's completely useless..."

"For this kind of creature, even Varanium weapons can't suppress its regeneration speed."

Busujima Saeko pulled out the Varanium katana she had stabbed into Scorpio.

The area where she had inflicted damage hadn't even been there for a second before it became completely intact again.

Facing this situation, even Busujima Saeko had no good solution.

Fortunately.

They were only here to sponge experience.

The main force was still Lin En.

And so...

Next, Busujima Saeko and the others, who had already been promoted to Middle-Grade Devils, dumped all their skills onto Scorpio.

It wasn't until they were about to be exhausted that Lin En brought them out.

"Huff, huff..."

The women panted, being cared for by Kō Yūko and the others.

Kasumigaoka Utaha panted, "With such a huge consumption, and fighting such a big thing, we should be able to sponge quite a bit of experience, right?"

Tendō Kisara suddenly said, "Is it possible to be promoted directly to Upper-Grade Devil?"

Kasumigaoka Utaha rolled her eyes at her.

You just became a Middle-Grade Devil a few days ago, and you're already thinking about Upper-Grade?

Busujima Saeko thought for a moment and said, "After all, we aren't the main force, so we shouldn't hold too many fantasies."

"However..."

Busujima Saeko thought about the wanton slaughter from before, subconsciously licked her lips, and then smiled:

"We also killed quite a few Stage IV Gastrea, so there should be quite an improvement."

Hearing this.

Kasumigaoka Utaha said in a complex tone, "Saeko, you'll definitely be fine; you might even be able to level up already."

After all, before the subjugation battle, Saeko's ability values weren't far from leveling up.

How much time had passed since then?

Kasumigaoka Utaha bit her lip, feeling somewhat unwilling.

Busujima Saeko smiled and didn't speak.

Her dream was to become the Master's sharpest blade!

Slowing down was not an option.

In her daily life, if the Master had no orders, she was always killing, killing, killing!

She didn't find it boring; on the contrary, she considered it a pleasure.

After all.

【Slaughter Longing】 wasn't just a skill name.

Busujima Saeko truly longed for slaughter!

Therefore...

It was not without reason that Lin En evaluated her as the best workhorse in the Familia.

"Hmph!" Hearing that Busujima Saeko was about to be promoted to an Upper-Grade Devil, Tendō Kisara said unyieldingly, "I will definitely become Master Lin En's sharpest blade!"

Busujima Saeko: "?"

Busujima Saeko looked at her with a strange expression.

How could this person steal someone else's lines!

However...

Hearing Tendō Kisara's words, she just smiled softly.

No matter what others said, it was just a metaphor.

Only she...

Busujima Saeko thought about her devilization ability, and then thought about the feeling of being held in Master Lin En's hands.

Hoo, hoo—

Unknowingly, her breathing became a bit more rapid.

Kasumigaoka Utaha looked at Busujima Saeko and Tendō Kisara strangely.

Are all sword users like this?

Sharing the same lines?

On the other side.

Lin En stood alone in front of Scorpio.

And Scorpio, for some reason, stopped its movement.

"So cool~"

Looking at Lin En's back, Kasumigaoka Utaha said infatuatedly, "As expected of the Master!"

Just his back alone made her feel a bit...

However, it might also be that the visual impact was quite large.

One person, one mountain.

Standing opposite each other, looking at each other from afar.

Hiss—

But...

What made them strange was.

"Scorpio, it stopped?"

Why?

They looked strange.

It was clearly fighting them fiercely just a moment ago.

Lin En was also a bit puzzled.

However...

Although Scorpio's voice sounded like it was crying, it also seemed to possess a glimmer of wisdom.

But...

Lin En looked at the deformed behemoth.

Sigh...

With this appearance, it's better to go reincarnate.

Lin En composed himself and looked toward Scorpio.

For a behemoth like this, it was the most natural target for Lin En.

And it wasn't agile enough; Lin En only needed to move simply, and Scorpio couldn't do anything about him.
