Re:Zero -Starting Life in Zero

After most of the soldiers had rushed into the battlefield, a wounded soldier limped over from the rear of the camp.

"I'm here, I'm here! You must be Julius! My name is Subaru Natsuki. As Grimm would say, I will become your eyes."

"Then I'll leave it to you, Mr. Natsuki Subaru."

Julius smiled gently, reached out and touched Subaru's forehead. Wisps of colorful light seeped out, transforming into a fiber optic cable that connected the two.

……

"Ah—do you hear that! It is my diligent followers who are diligently walking towards death! And you, why are you still alive! I will not allow you to commit such a lazy act!"

Petritchus's roar was sharp and piercing. His withered arms suddenly opened, and dozens of invisible, dark hands instantly emerged from beneath his robes.

These tentacles, hidden in the air, moved silently like venomous snakes toward Green, who was struggling with Gluttony, attempting to entangle and tear him apart from all sides.

At this moment, Green was in his beast form, his claws colliding with Ray's fist, which was burning with black flames, causing sparks to fly.

But just as the tentacles were about to reach him, the hair on his body suddenly stood on end, and his wild instincts exploded in his mind like an alarm bell.

Those trajectories that ordinary people cannot see are crystal clear to him.

"Damn it, if you're going to launch a sneak attack, at least have some sportsmanship!"

Green let out a low growl, abruptly turning to the side to narrowly avoid the tentacle slashing down from above, while simultaneously whipping his long tail out like a steel whip.

A hissing tearing sound came from the air as several invisible hands were struck by the long tail and instantly turned into black smoke and dissipated.

Without pausing, he used the force of his sidestep to viciously claw at Ray's chest, forcing him back several steps, while his peripheral vision remained fixed on the direction of Sloth.

"You saw it! You can see it, right! How can you see the proof that I am uniquely loved!"

Petitschius was shocked and furious at Green's performance, and even the invisible hand seemed to boil with his emotions.

"Damn it, damn it, damn it, damn it..."

The rampaging Bishop of Sloth expanded the reach of his powers, each invisible hand growing thick and powerful, swaying around like giant pythons and destroying the terrain.

Green felt an immense pressure bearing down on him, and his beastly eyes suddenly contracted.

Just as he forced Ray back, several tentacles as thick as buckets attacked from all sides with a sharp whooshing sound, blocking all paths of evasion.

Seeing this, Ray grinned maliciously and pounced, his hand, burning with black flames, aimed straight for Green's back: "Now let's see where you can hide! Become my food for my resurrection!"

Just as Ray's hand was about to touch Green's back, Green suddenly deactivated his beast form, shrunk his body, and slipped through the mesh woven by the invisible hand.

A jet-black tentacle, several times thicker than before, swept across suddenly, narrowly missing Green, its force so great that it created a whistling sound as it cut through the air.

"Ugh—!"

Before the Gluttonous Bishop Rae could even react, he was struck squarely by the brutal sweeping blow.

His body, burning with black soul flames, flew backward like a kite with a broken string, skipping across the ground and falling like a skipping stone.

When he stopped moving, the black flames had dimmed considerably, like a candle flickering in the wind.

Rai vomited a mouthful of black blood, his cloudy eyes filled with disbelief. He struggled to get up, but only suffered excruciating pain from dislocated bones.

"You brainless elf, I'll chew you up too!" Lei shouted hoarsely, his voice filled with suppressed rage.

"It's you, you bastard, who's been pestering my husband!"

boom!

A resentful voice rang out behind Lai, followed by a whistling meteor hammer.

"what!"

Lai was already suffering from dislocated bones and excruciating pain, and had no time to turn around. He was knocked to the ground by the blow.

Rem seized the opportunity, swinging the chain in a wide arc. The meteor hammer, accompanied by a sharp whistling sound, slammed down on Rai one blow after another.

"Witch Cult!"

"I'll beat you to death!"

"You dare bully my husband? Do you think I'm a pushover?!"

……

With each angry shout, the hammerhead crushed heavily into Ray's body.

The cracking sounds of bones breaking continued, and Ray's screams were shattered, leaving him only able to curl up in vain.

"Ah! Stop! Stop!"

"Shut up and die!"

"I told you to stop!"

With a fierce roar, the black flames around Lai suddenly surged, actually deflecting the incoming meteor hammer away!

Before Rem could react, Lei pounced on her like a mad dog, his withered fingers gripping her sleeve tightly.

"Name! Your name! Tell me!" Ray roared, his voice hoarse like sandpaper.

"You think I'm an idiot?"

Rem's demon horn blazed brightly, and the chill in her blue eyes almost froze the air. She raised her other hand and punched Rai in the face without hesitation.

boom!

This punch, imbued with the brute force of the demon race, slammed hard into Laiyi's face.

His nose collapsed instantly, and he slid several meters across the ground like a cannonball, leaving a deep furrow in the soil along his path.

Seeing that the guy was barely breathing, Rem quickly ran to the flail that had been flung away and retrieved it, then turned around and headed towards Grimm's direction to provide support.

Just when Rhine thought he could finally catch his breath—

Elsa walked in with elegant steps, the scimitar in her hand twirling between her fingers, and she seemed to be in a good mood.

"Oh my, so that's the one who told you your story, the Archbishop of Gluttony of the Witch Cult~ What a long title~ Your intestines were practically spilling out, why did you try to stop them...?"

"What are you doing? You... Ah—!!"

……

On the other side of the battlefield, Green is playing jump rope with Sloth.

The problem is that the lazy rope-swinging is too chaotic and not very visually appealing.

Although this hand, which is visible to everyone, is very slow, you can basically dodge it if you can see it.

However, it must be said that this move is still very destructive. If you are accidentally hit by it, it is probably no different from hitting a Transformer.

As Green darted around, he took the opportunity to observe the deaths of the other witch cultists. Once all the "fingers" had been cut off, he could finally fight Sloth without restraint.

"Hurry up, Crusch! I've been holding the hunter back for ages!"

Green's shout was drowned out by the sharp sound of tentacles tearing through the air. He ducked abruptly, barely dodging a sweeping tentacle.

The thick, dark limbs grazed his scalp, and the low slope behind him was instantly flattened.

call out!

Colorful sword light flashed, severing all the "invisible hands" intertwined on the battlefield.

"Please hand over the battlefield to me!"

Julius leaped in with his eyes closed, the longsword in his hand gleaming with multicolored light, condensing multiple kinds of elven magic.

Sloth was already dumbfounded, his right hand trembling as if he were having an epileptic seizure, pointing at Julius.

"You saw it too, didn't you...?"
