"Alright, this is as far as we can go without being spotted by the people of the Sloth territory."

The red-haired girl reached out her hand to stop the blue undead from walking right by her and ended up with her palm on his muscular stomach.

"Say, why do we even hide from them? In the first place, we are helping them by exterminating all monsters around their settlements and transport routes - why would they be against that?"

The undead tilted his head and asked.

"Haa... well, considering that all the native monsters have left their usual territories because of our little chicken chase and caused a lot of damage to the people and the transport routes - I doubt that they would welcome complete strangers with open arms. And since enough time has passed for the royal family to start taking action about our quarrels with the main branch Envys - like wanted posters or something. It is possible that Fruit Salad's citizens - no matter the territory they are from - may be inclined to attempt to apprehend us tempted by the price on our heads."

The red-haired girl explained while completely absorbed in the study of each muscle on the blue undead's stomach which she traced with her index fingers with increasing interest.

"What's the big deal about that? If they'll attack us, we will simply kill them."

The blue undead shrugged his shoulders and shook his head dismissively.

"...haa... it might be okay in different territories, but I don't want to do that here. People of the Sloth territory are protecting the rest of the kingdom and continent from being flooded by the titan-class monsters, and they have been doing that without rest for hundreds of years. I just think that they should have some benefits over the rest of the population."

The girl stepped towards the blue undead and rested her forehead against his robust chest while continuing to touch his abs.

"Ohh... it's like with that receptionist?"

The undead gasped and nodded his head in understanding.

"Pfft...! Not exactly, but you seem to get a general idea."

The girl snickered and nuzzled against him while resting both of her hands on his stomach.

"Are they close enough already?"

She suddenly asked looking up at the blue undead whose eyes were glowing reddish as he was looking around.

"Not yet. But, they are closing in, a bunch of wolves, some griffins and lizards, and those horned funny-looking thingies but barely any humanoid winged monsters."

The undead scoffed and sighed.

"The angels are supposed to have the highest MDF of all the known monsters, it's not that surprising that your group taunt didn't work on them."

The red-haired girl patted the blue undead's stomach and nodded with understanding.

"Hey! My taunt is strong enough for the likes of them! It's probably because there weren't all that many winged ones in this area anyway!"

"Ha ha! Of course!"

The undead furrowed his brows and pouted at the insinuation that poked at his pride and the red-haired girl laughed in a very specific way that sounded like a dog's barks.

"Haa... Just in case, let's make today the last day when you're using your fire offensively in the sea of mist. It looks like the fog is thinning out and that could be dangerous for the local population and to us too... you do remember that one of my road to rule quest objectives is to erase all avatar of sin titles, right? The avatar of Sloth is controlling the sea of mist - I'm not too keen on announcing them our presence just yet - I think we're still too weak to accomplish my plan."

Cranberry breathed out and complained.

"...although I can't be sure whether the avatar of sloth doesn't already know about us and our plans or not..."

She added tracing circles on the cold blue skin of her undead.

"...haa... your taunt is really something, I'm hearing at least a thousand of various beasts."

The red-haired girl combed back her blood-red hair with her fingers, revealing the ear glowing with white light.

"About that... time to test out that new combination skill we came up with~!"

Zombie hummed happily and wrapped his arms, both the cold blue one and the red and black smoke one around the red-haired girl, hugging her close.

"...~!"

The girl closed her eyes comfortably and embraced the undead back.

Their bodies began to glow with a strong murky red light that looked just like the smoke that the undead's right arm was made out of, and in the next moment, the blackish-red pillar of fire erupted into the sky, evaporating the mist in its path.

As the mist disappeared, the hord of crazed-up monsters rushing madly right at the pair was revealed.

"?!?!?!??!!!"

They all sensed the danger coming from the pillar of odd fire but it was far too late for them to retreat.

Suddenly, the pillar of fire changed its color to violet and begun to expand at an insane rate.

Before any of the massive beasts could even blink, the blazing inferno swallowed them whole and turned their flesh and bones into ash with a horrifying howl of flames.

"Whoa, that was quite something!"

The blue undead gasped, looking up at the ashes of the monster falling onto the burnt ground like genuine snow - but a lot more ugly.

"Khe, khe...!"

The red-haired girl tried her best to protect her mouth and nose from the ashes but there was only that much she could do.

"...! Crap I forgot that you need to breathe! Hold on tight."

He gasped and gently lifted the girl up in his arms in a princess carry, jumping away from the continuously falling ashes that already were covering most of the area freed from the mist by the undead's fire skill.

"Hey, how about we hasten your plan and go meet the titans? I'll jump over the defense lines of the Sloth family so that they wouldn't notice us."

The undead asked but the only answer was a silent frown from the girl.

"Yeah, we're definitely going."

The undead nodded to the girl and jumped.

*tap*

Cranberry tapped his chest and scowled at him.

"Pffft...! Nope, not listening."

Zombie snorted and faced away from the pouting girl.
