Velzard couldn’t hide her surprise and confusion as she saw Velgrind who had grown stronger unexpectedly.

She felt happy for her younger sister’s growth and also rage as she was someone who was obstructing her path.

Now Velzard could only acknowledge that Velgrind was an unavoidable hindrance for her to kill Guy.

(Fine, Velgrind, I shall acknowledge you as my enemy.)

Once Velzard acknowledged Velgrind, she decided to activate her hidden Ultimate Skill『Envious Lord Leviathan』.

However, that was an improbable decision for Velzard’s normal train of thought..

If she ended up showing her hidden ability as her trump card against Demon Lord Guy Crimson to Velgrind, it would lose its meaning as a trump card.

Velzard who should be calm didn’t even realize such a simple thing.

No, she couldn’t realize it. The order to kill was the only thing left in her mind because of Ultimate Dominion

For Velzard to still be able to retain her ego was proof that she had a strong spirit.

However, even with such a strong spirit―― Velzard couldn’t defy the order of Ultimate Dominion.

After a momentary hesitation, Velzard unleashed blades of envy towards Velgrind.

◆◆◆

Velgrind had realized quickly that she could fight her older sister Velzard on more than equal terms thanks to『Flame God Sovereign Cthugha』‘s peerless ability which had evolved to overcome the control over herself.

After all, since she lost in terms of energy, if she just had an equal ability like before, it was clear her defeat was a matter of time.

Even now she was still inferior in energy levels, but she could fight her sister equally in terms of energy efficiency. It was a very surprising evolution.

And even about the energy――

(What is this connection―― “Soul Corridor”? As long as I wish for it, an unknown energy will flow into me……)

Yes, through the “Soul Corridor” that had been constructed between her and Rimuru, it was possible for her to replenish her energy.

Actually, Velgrind had lost the majority of her magic essence in “Alteration” into 『Flame God Sovereign Cthugha』and its Ignition[1], but right after that, energy flowed into her from the “Soul Corridor”, so her energy was almost completely recovered.

She didn’t think that she could lose,

“I feel I won’t lose”, that was Velgrind’s honest thoughts.

However, at that moment, Velgrind noticed that her older sister’s expression changed.

(Is it coming!?)

Velgrind put herself on guard.

It seems her intuition was right. Velzard’s trump card was activated and sent towards Velgrind.

「Whiteout Absorb[2]!!」

A strike filled with everything Velzard has got.

It was Velzard’s strongest attack which combined her own ability『Cessation Lost[3]』and『Patience Lord Gabriel』’s ability『Solidification[4]』with also『Envious Lord Leviathan』’s ability『Absorb[5]』.
