Jealousy Aura! The more damage you deal, the more likely you are to attack your teammates!

That withered claw pointed lightly.

There was no earth-shaking explosion, no torrent of world-ending energy.

An indescribable chill shot up Dragon Soaring World's spine!

It was a vicious curse aimed at his soul, at the depths of his heart!

"Watch out!"

Dragon Soaring World roared. The Godhead Prototype of War and Greed within him throbbed wildly, and a domineering surge of Divinity Power burst from his body, forming a warped field of interwoven gold and purple before him.

But the invisible curse passed straight through the field!

It ignored Dragon Soaring World, a Quasi-god, and shot toward Blood War Eight Wastelands beside him with the precision of a snake scenting blood!

"Fuck!"

Blood War Eight Wastelands barely managed to get the word out before his entire body went rigid.

The new Abyssal Roarer Armor he had only just put on was still warm. Now the vicious demon relief on its chest seemed to come alive, letting out a soundless wail.

Crack... crack...

Before everyone's horrified eyes, spiderweb cracks spread across the exquisite armor!

It was as though invisible hands envied its beauty and hated its power, intent on crushing it by force!

[System Notice: Your Abyssal Roarer Armor has been afflicted by the Jealousy Stripping curse. Its durability is falling rapidly!]

[95%... 80%... 65%...]

"Fuck! My armor!"

Blood War Eight Wastelands let out a heart-rending scream. He sounded more devastated than if his wife had died.

That armor was everything he owned!

"Thieves basking in glory that does not belong to you."

Atop the Sin Bed, High Priest Malakor gave a dry laugh. The two pinpricks of violet light gleamed with the delight of a cat toying with mice.

"My master's Sin Karma will strip away every gift you did not earn."

"Fuck off with your creepy tricks!"
