Chapter 77 - Chapter 77: Sloth Bishop? Isn't this guy just a skeleton soldier?

After Petelgeuse finished speaking, his head even bent to an impossible angle. If it were a normal person, their neck would have broken long ago.

"You are... Geuse?!"

Beatrice widened her eyes, looking at him in shock.

The person calling himself Petelgeuse was someone she once knew well.

Now, however, he was overwhelmed by madness and didn't seem to recognize Beatrice at all.

"Bad, bad, bad!"

Natsuki Subaru was now on full alert, watching Petelgeuse in front of him.

No matter how you looked at it, he could feel that this guy was very dangerous.

He was definitely not an ordinary Witch Cultist!

"Aqua, Kazuma, this person is probably not ordinary... huh? Where are they?"

Just as Natsuki Subaru was stunned, Satou Kazuma and Aqua had already walked to Petelgeuse's side.

"Hey, hey, hey, are you serious about that hairstyle?"

Satou Kazuma walked up to Petelgeuse and said with a smile,

"It's like putting a green watermelon upside down on your head. Who designed that hairstyle for you, hahaha!"

After seeing Petelgeuse's hairstyle, Satou Kazuma couldn't help but laugh and said to him.

"Huh?"

Petelgeuse was a little confused.

There was no doubt that these people were his enemies.

Why weren't these people afraid of him at all?

Contrary to Natsuki Subaru, Satou Kazuma found Petelgeuse to look too funny and not very strong at all.

He should be able to deal with him easily.

"But how did you do that neck-twisting move? It's amazing!"

Satou Kazuma wanted to imitate the move, but quickly felt pain.

"Ouch, ouch, ouch, Aqua, can you do it... Aqua, what are you doing?"

At this moment, Aqua cast an incredibly firm gaze on Petelgeuse.

A mighty power surged within her.

"I can't believe an undead would dare to appear so arrogantly before this goddess! Unforgivable! Unforgivable! I absolutely cannot allow any undead to be here! Turn Undead!"

Aqua raised her hand, and the blinding light burst out, directly engulfing Petelgeuse.

Petelgeuse's face was pale, his face withered like a skeleton.

Isn't this the lowest-level undead minion!

Elsa wasn't a true undead before, so this guy must be!

"Useless goddess?"

Satou Kazuma couldn't help but exclaim.

He had seen Aqua use this skill before, but the effect was a little worse than it was now.

Was it because Aqua's number of followers had increased dramatically, so her power had recovered a lot?

"Ahhhhhhh!"

Petelgeuse screamed.

But soon, he realized something.

"Huh? What kind of magic is this?"

Petelgeuse didn't feel anything on his body. If anything, it was a little warm.

"How is this possible? Why doesn't my Turn Undead work!? He clearly looks like the lowest-level skeleton soldier?"

Aqua looked at him in shock.

"Could it be that he is a Demon Lord level character?"

"Wait a minute, Aqua."

Satou Kazuma reached out his hand towards Petelgeuse's nose, as if he had thought of something.

The latter was confused, completely unaware of what these guys were going to do.

"Aqua, this guy is breathing! Undead shouldn't need to breathe, right?"

Satou Kazuma said to Aqua.

"Yeah, undead don't need to breathe!"

Aqua looked at Petelgeuse with a confused expression.

"Geuse... Petelgeuse is not an undead, he's a spirit!"

At this moment, Beatrice spoke.

"Huh, you're saying this guy with a skeleton face is a spirit?"

Aqua and Satou Kazuma both exclaimed in disbelief.

This guy looked like an undead however you look at it.

Turns out he's a spirit.

Satou Kazuma's face revealed an even more disgusted expression.

Shouldn't spirits all be beautiful women?

This guy is a complete ugly man!

He can't be a spirit!

He's not allowed to be!

"Ughahhhhh! Die!"

Satou Kazuma burst out with all his strength and punched Petelgeuse in the face.

Although his strength was a little lower than that of an average person, it still made the latter's head shake a few times.

"This is the real brain shaking!!!! I didn't have a chance to attack before, but now I can finally vent the anger in my heart!"

The next instant, Satou Kazuma was about to push Petelgeuse to the ground, stomp on him a few times, and spit on him a few times.

But at this moment, Petelgeuse burst out laughing.

"It hurts... it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts, it hurts! Ah, this is the feeling of being alive!"

"...Another one?"

Satou Kazuma couldn't help but think of Elsa, that guy was also an M.

But at least Elsa was a beautiful woman, right?

What are you, a guy who looks like an undead, a troll, and a goblin hybrid!

Satou Kazuma walked to Aqua's side and wiped his hands on her clothes.

Even touching him felt dirty!

Petelgeuse's gaze shifted directly to Aqua's face:

"You are, that guy who calls herself a goddess?"

"Hey, hey, what do you mean by calling herself a goddess? This goddess is a goddess! Honestly convert to this goddess's religion, this goddess's religion, this goddess can still let bygones be bygones!"

Aqua said to Petelgeuse.

"Impersonating a goddess to establish a cult, taking shortcuts, you are truly slothful!"

"I very agree with the word slothful."

Satou Kazuma said with a smile.

"Ugh, so disgusting?"

At this moment, Aqua looked up and looked at the top of Petelgeuse's head, as if she saw something.

"He does look very disgusting."

Satou Kazuma chimed in.

"Ugh, not his appearance, didn't you see? There are so many tentacles, so disgusting!!"

"What, what tentacles, what are you talking about?"

Satou Kazuma was confused.

Natsuki Subaru next to him also had a solemn expression, he also saw countless limbs spreading out from behind Petelgeuse.

"What are you guys talking about?"

Satou Kazuma was clueless.

"I'm running away first! Goodbye, Kazuma!"

Aqua ran away as if she saw something terrible.

"Hey, hey, what's going on!"

Satou Kazuma couldn't see these things at all.

The next instant, he was directly knocked away by those invisible arms, bouncing on the ground like a stone skipping across water.

However, Aqua felt somewhat guilty about her behavior of turning around and running away, and would remotely cast healing whenever Satou Kazuma landed and bounced up.

"Heal!"

"Heal!"

"Heal!"

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"

After several close encounters with the ground, Satou Kazuma finally stopped.

"You might as well just resurrect me..."

"What are you saying, run!"

"That's right! Trial! Trial! This is a trial! Everything is a trial for us to repay love! Illuminate! Guide! Ah, the brain is shaking!"

At this moment, an incredibly crazy smile appeared on Petelgeuse's face. He activated his ability, releasing more limbs, and launched an attack on Aqua.

However, Aqua dodged every attack with the precision of a gymnast.

"Help, Kazuma ahhhhhhh!"

"You, you can see them?"

A hint of surprise appeared on Petelgeuse's face, but it quickly turned into anger.

"Stop, Geuse!"

At this moment, Beatrice stood in front of Petelgeuse and said extremely seriously,

"Even if it's you, Betty will never allow you to hurt Kazuma!"

Even though the person in front of her was once very important to her, Beatrice would never allow Satou Kazuma to be in danger again.

"Geuse?"

At the moment he heard this name, Petelgeuse's originally cloudy eyes seemed to change slightly, but the next instant, a crazy expression still appeared on his face.

"To protect your beloved, you actively chose to come out to stop me! Such a, such a, such a, such a sight that makes me excited. Really, really, really, really, really, really! You too! Possessed by love, living for love! The brain is shaking...!"

"Damn it! Don't hurt anyone!"

Natsuki Subaru, who was next to him, also picked up a stone and threw it directly at Petelgeuse.

The people around him were fighting with all their strength, how could Natsuki Subaru sit idly by.

"How diligent! How diligent! But you... are you prideful?"

Petelgeuse looked at Natsuki Subaru with great interest.

"Prideful? What are you talking about?"

A trace of doubt appeared on Natsuki Subaru's face.

"Steal!"

At this time, Satou Kazuma, who was originally lying on the ground, also stood up.

Although he didn't know what Petelgeuse's attack methods were, Satou Kazuma guessed that he might be using some kind of special item.

If that's the case, using the Steal ability could turn the tables!

As a light flashed, Satou Kazuma held something in his hand.

"Huh? Isn't this Betty's book?"

Satou Kazuma lowered his head and looked at his hands, the Book of Wisdom, the same one Beatrice had.

"You, you?"

Petelgeuse looked at Satou Kazuma in shock, then desperately reached for the neckline of his clothes. The Gospel, which should have been hidden inside, was gone!

"You, you, you, you, you stole my gospel, her gospel! The gospel I love so much! I'm going to kill you ahhhhhhh!"

Petelgeuse's expression became more and more distorted, the anger in his eyes burned even deeper, as if he wanted to swallow Satou Kazuma alive in the next second.

Countless invisible hands suddenly attacked Satou Kazuma.

Although Satou Kazuma couldn't see Petelgeuse's attack methods, after his recent experience of being a bouncy ball, he had guessed that the other party was using some kind of attack method that could not be captured by the naked eye.

At the same time, Satou Kazuma had also realized one thing.

This book was very important to Petelgeuse!

"If you dare to make any rash moves, I'll tear this book up!"

Satou Kazuma opened the book and immediately shouted loudly at the other party.

"No, no, no, no!"

Those countless invisible hands immediately stopped in mid-air.

Hearing Petelgeuse's shout, and the fact that he hadn't been knocked away, was enough to prove that Satou Kazuma had bet correctly.

"Honestly answer my questions, where did this book come from! If you don't answer truthfully, I'll tear this book up!"

Satou Kazuma said loudly.

"This is her, my beloved, the Gospel given to me by that witch!"

"That's strange, your Witch Cult worships the Witch of Envy, right? Isn't she sealed? How do you have this book?"

"....."

Petelgeuse seemed to be thinking, but only answered after a long time,

"Being chosen by her, the chosen one can obtain the Gospel—"

"You still haven't answered my question, she's been sealed, so how did she give you this book? And isn't this Betty's? Betty, your mother isn't the Witch of Envy, right?"

"Of course not! My mother is... is someone else!"

Beatrice immediately said loudly.

"So you secretly copy pirated books, huh?"

Satou Kazuma said while slowly walking towards Petelgeuse.

Suddenly, his expression changed drastically, and he pointed to the distance, letting out a cry of surprise.

"Damn, the Witch of Envy Satella is here?!"

"?!"

After hearing these words, Petelgeuse quickly turned his head to look behind him—

But there was nothing there.

"Secret technique! Backstab!"

Satou Kazuma used the book in his hand as a brick and smashed it directly into the back of Petelgeuse's head.

A backstab is always the most effective method.

"%$"

After a grunt, Petelgeuse fell directly to the ground.

Satou Kazuma immediately stepped forward and stomped on him a few times.

"I'll let you hit me, I'll let you call me ugly! Damn it!"

After venting the anger in his heart, Satou Kazuma turned his head to look at Beatrice:

"Betty, what kind of ability was that guy using just now? Can you see it?"

"Betty can't see it either, but in theory it should be an Authority."

"An Authority? That's the ability possessed by Witches... now called Great Sin Archbishops. As long as you have a Witch Factor, you'll gain a different Authority."

"I see!"

Just as Satou Kazuma nodded, Natsuki Subaru silently walked behind him.

The next moment, a scary and twisted smile suddenly appeared on his face.

It was the same smile as Petelgeuse.

"The brain is shaki—"

"Don't stand behind me ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Satou Kazuma completed the turn in a split second and unleashed his strongest punch, hitting Natsuki Subaru directly in the face.
