"THE SIN OF SLOTH?!" Luminous, Elfina, and Fiere cried at the same time, completely flabbergasted.
Yes, indeed, this guy just said he was the Sin of Sloth. All Demon Generals had a Sin attributed to them; they were often called the Demon Lords of the Deadly Sins. I had defeated Wrath, Lust, and Greed... Don't tell me Sloth was hiding all this time inside the damn dungeon?!
"To think you would find me from all things! The Demon King had sent me here to disrupt this town, which was the border between the Fertile Lands and the Wastelands... To think I was found out! Ahh~ But it was so delicious to absorb all of this miasma coating the entire Dungeon! These monsters generated here are also very tasty... If it wasn't because somebody else has the Sin of Gluttony Title, I would had already acquired it, hahahaha!"
Sloth began to laugh manically, completely carefreely as well, as if nothing seemed to worry him. Maybe he already knew we killed his eggs and he didn't cared... or she? I guess I'll call him she because she got the voice of a woman, a very distorted and bizarre one. But then again, her whole attitude was pretty cliché, huh? Well, you can't expect much from a second-grade side quest Boss. Nonetheless, before any battle, I wanted to ask questions, but Luminous got ahead of me.
"H-How did you got here?! This city is also guarded by my barrier!" Said Luminous.
"Fools! I am impressed you hate yet to realize there is a traitor within your kingdom... Fufu, but I guess that doesn't matter now. The Human Empire will soon arrive here to beat you all down. Your defeat is inevitable. I was merely sent here as a way to reassure the Demon King things would get done! I was just about to swarm this city in a few more hours after my eggs were to grow big enough, but you damn bastards just burned them...! Ah, well, whatever. Now that I got you inside my stomach, I am going to savor you as your flesh and bones dissolve within my gastric acids!" Laughed Sloth.
It seems that my theory was right, she was a damn giant mass of flesh that just fused with the floor ten of the dungeon and has been draining the dungeon's energy to sustain herself and probably produce more parasites, which are her children! Is this why they gave so much EXP then? Makes sense.
"Y-You... Just what are you!?" Luminous asked.
"Fufu... A young God? Oh, the last, right? I can't believe you foolishly came all the way to my stomach! And well, I am Pereza, the Demon Lord of Sloth. My body's true appearance is that of a worm, but I have the special Skill [Body Transfiguration]! With it, I can absorb mass and energy and shapeshift, expand, and reproduce! I can even self-duplicate through eggs and form an army! But my large requirement of energy made me mostly useless in open battles. The Demon King was generous enough to send me here, a paradise where I can get all the tasty miasma I need to continue growing powerful...! As long as there's energy for me to absorb, your future looks grimmer than the one of the elves...! Bwahaha! Now... Die miserably!"
SPLAAAASH!
Suddenly, several holes opened within the fleshy chambers, filling the entire place with gastric acids that could dissolve anything, similar to the properties of slimes, but even stronger, perhaps. The odor was also horrid. Thankfully we were all floating thanks to my [Telekinesis] but the gastric acids were bound to come to our way eventually and dissolve us alive.
"Is this your stupid plan? To dissolve us with some acid?!" Asked Luminous. "It is quite foolish of you to believe you can actually devour a god descendant! HOLY LIGHT BREATH!!!"
FLASH!
Luminous suddenly gathered large quantities of Mana within his jaws and formed an enormous concentration of light, unleashing a destructive and engulfing blast of light against the center of the fleshy chamber, the gigantic divine laser consumed the flesh and easily turned it into ashes, opening an enormous hole down to the rest of this monstrous body.
"Hah! You think I didn't thought about it? [Quick Regeneration]!"
FLUOOOSH!
Suddenly, Pereza utilized a large quantity of Energy accumulated and the wound Luminous caused was regenerated in less than a second, as I saw all the tendrils and flesh unify together once more... What sort of insane regeneration ability is that? That's totally cheat!
"My most powerful attack... you regenerated from it so easily?!" Asked Luminous.
"Bwahaha! This acid is also super resistant, made by refining miasma itself, the same substance that can even consume gods... Have a good nap, you little god!" Laughed Sloth. "Fall into despair as I go to sleep- Eh?!"
Suddenly, everyone noticed I was doing something weird. Indeed, I wasn't just staring! I moved down into the acid and opened my Item Box, absorbing it all inside and storing the Acid in seconds. I could even do this with the whole ocean maybe, although it would take hundreds of years to absorb the ocean, this tiny amount of acid was easy by manipulating it with [Telekinesis]!
"M-My acid!" Cried Sloth, as she tried to generate more, but I quickly placed the portal leading to the Item Box near it. The Acid was simply coming inside endlessly. "I'll have a nice supply of it to bathe my enemies with, thank you!"
"Y-You bastard! What sort of insane ability is this?! How can you just bring my acid away...?!" Asked Pereza in disbelief, I laughed manically as I played the role of her worst nightmare.
"What? You don't have [Item Box]? Oh, too bad then! I'll make sure to take all of this acid for myself, I might splash your Demon King with it one of these days! How about it? Do you like the idea, giant worm?" I laughed.
"Y-You bastard!!! [Tentacle Nightmare]!"
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
Suddenly, dozens of gigantic tentacles filled with sharp fangs and covered in eyes emerged one after the other, all of them directing themselves at us!
"Know what's endless despair! [Deadly Whip]!"
Pereza quickly activated a Weapon Technique which she used with her own tentacles, using them as whips and unleashing a constant barrage of attacks with them!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
