Lowering his head, the abundant War God's Will looked at its arrow-pierced knee.

When had it happened?

It had no idea when it had been struck by the arrow.

More importantly...

How had Mist known where its weakness lay?

Doubt and disbelief surfaced on the abundant War God's Will's face, then froze there.

When the Plague representing Calamity erupted, the frozen War God's Will... shattered.

Crack!

Like glass falling to the ground.

With a crisp sound, it scattered across the ground.

Gluttony, who had been waiting for a long time, opened its huge mouth and swept up the fragments, swallowing them whole.

Sloth looked indulgently at his younger brother as he devoured everything, then yawned unconsciously and began rubbing his swollen temples.

Although he had used the dragon and tiger roars created by Pride to mask the sound of the arrow, the truly difficult part had been finding the weakness of that abundant War God's Will.

The only thing worth celebrating was that his elder brother's guess had been correct.

In the struggle against Calamity Lady, the War God had an obvious weakness toward illness and plague.

It was even... a flaw!

Otherwise, Black Calamity could not have erupted, much less persisted until the appearance of the so-called Calamity Lady.

Sloth did not know who had first discovered the War God's flaw.

But when the two sides were enemies, there could be no mistake in exploiting it.

Still, even with his elder brother's conjecture, he was utterly exhausted.

"I'll leave the rest to you."

After saying this to Pride, Sloth fell directly into sleep, his snores rising one after another.

The corner of Pride's mouth curled up almost imperceptibly. He grabbed Sloth, seized Gluttony by the scruff of the neck, and vanished in a flash.
