Within Creeping Hunger was the soul of a desire apostle, which could use Danger Prediction

as an ability.

But using this ability through a Sealed Artifact was somewhat different from possessing it oneself.

The genuine ability not only allowed its user to sense danger, but also to know where it came from and who posed it.

The Sealed Artifact version was somewhat weaker. First, Raphael had to wear the glove to sharpen his spirituality, particularly his ability to sense danger, which became far more acute than that of an ordinary Sequence 6 Beyonder.

Once the source appeared, Raphael could determine with considerable certainty which of the targets before him was more dangerous.

Right now, for instance, the two wildly rolling eyeballs gave Raphael the feeling that they could kill him!

He had intended to crush both eyeballs underfoot, but instead immediately leaped backward to dodge them.

Then Creeping Hunger, which Raphael wore on his hand, let out a wail. The eye-shaped "shell" held in that hand seemed about to melt and seep into the Mystical Item.

Although Raphael's emotions had fluctuated considerably moments earlier, he had retained his basic vigilance. After prying this "eye" out with his fingernails, he had held it in his gloved hand.

He had no time to examine it and hastily threw the softening eye to the ground.

Squelch!

Just then, a javelin-like branch pierced Raphael's back, protruding a considerable distance from his chest. A few drops of deep black blood dripped onto the ground.

It was the third Beyonder from earlier. The successive injuries he had suffered should have left him incapable of fighting even if they had not killed
