“Holy Gifts, Holy Lost.”

“Hmm?”

As the saint muttered this, my body became heavy and dull.

“Oh? Is this the first time you’ve received a debuff? Claudia can’t do this kind of trick. My buff doubles your status, and the debuff reduces it by 0.5. Of course, this can’t be undone with recovery magic.”

I can see why she was so confident; a 2x buff and a 0.5x debuff is a bit harsh.

“Lightning shrink.”

But then, all I have to do is kill the saint first. That way, the buff would be lifted as well as the debuff. I moved right in front of the saint with the lightning shrink. Then I swung my sword at the saint’s neck.

“Saint!”

“Tch…”

B pushed the saint to avoid the sword. I had already established in my mind that B’s extra skill was something about reading the future. Unless that’s the case, it would be impossible to prevent this from happening on the first sight.

The reason I came all the way to this place where the heroes were so close by with my lightning speed wasn’t only to slay the saint, of course. In a situation like this, other heroes would probably use their extra skills like B did. I want them to use their extra skills as soon as possible.

“Ow! What’s this lightning? I’m numb!”

“It hurts…”

I’d been watching the heroes closely with my bird’s eye view, and yet, I was hit square in the face by the woman. Did she teleport? No…I didn’t notice anything until she hit me. I didn’t even react to my high-speed crisis detection. What did the woman do?

“Hey!”

This time, A slashed at me with a one-handed sword. This guy is simply faster than the other heroes. But this is not an extra skill. It’s too weak to be an extra skill.

“Tch…”

“Hey…why do you want to touch me so badly?”

A swings a one-handed sword, and when he intentionally shows an opening, he reaches out with a hand that isn’t holding a sword. I’m pretty sure this guy’s extra skill is triggered by touching.

“Hey trash! What are you doing! Help me quickly!”

“You’re looking away from me…!”

A started scurrying around to look for the spirit. He was fighting against me, but he was so relaxed. I slashed at A, who was full of gaps. Now one of them is out of the fight!

Incidentally, these spirits were forcibly taken somewhere by Yug and the others when I attracted their attention with my lightning shrink.

“Ugh…”

“Don’t worry about those useless slaves. Focus on this one for now.”

“That piece of shit…Tch…yeah, right.”

The woman kicked me in the side this time. That’s why my sword didn’t hit A. I backed away from the heroes and kept my distance from them.

“What’s that woman’s ability?”

Again, I was observing the heroes. As usual, I didn’t even see her coming close to me until the attack hit. The ability to move like instantaneously and inflict the inevitable attack…could it be time stopping? Then all the woman’s actions make sense.

But time stopping is too much of a cheat. If she stopped time every time she attacked, she could keep attacking unilaterally. But she didn’t do that, and both times she stopped time, it was deactivated the moment she attacked me. Is it forced to be deactivated if she touches someone?

Now I have a general idea of B and the woman’s abilities. Then, let’s try attacking them in a different way this time.

“Lightning Shrink.”

I moved into the middle of the triangular formation of the heroes with lightning shrink. In their formation, A was in the lead, with B and the woman diagonally behind. And the saint was standing alone in the back of the heroes.

“Yes!”

The moment I moved with lightning shrink, B attacked me as if in a hurry. I repelled B’s sword.

“Lightning Bolt!”

「[Gyaaaaah!!!] 」

A and B are struggling while screaming in despair. The woman seems to have escaped to the saint’s place alone. Seeing that she didn’t save them, is the time stop canceled even if she touches her friends? And the woman is holding her left arm. It seems that she wasn’t able to avoid the lightning blast completely.

“Holy heal.”

The saint  healed A and B at the moment the lightning blast was over. A and B, who were on the verge of being burnt to a crisp, recovered completely. Thinking positively, I could hurt the heroes as many times as I wanted as long as they recovered. However, thinking negatively, they could only be dismissed if they were killed instantly.

“Heh! You have such a skill as fast reflex!”

A said to me with a sickening smile. No, I don’t have that skill anymore. What’s this guy talking about all of a sudden? Did the lightning strike make him crazy?

“Ha!”

At any rate, he was close, he was noisy, and his face was weird, so I slashed at A with my sword. But that attack was easily avoided. His reflex speed is much faster than before.

“ I can copy your skills by touching you or by eating your magic! I copied your fast reflexes!”

“………”

“Are you so desperate you can’t speak?”

“Shut up.”

A thinks he has the upper hand and speaks confidently. That doesn’t matter now. What did this guy say? Did he copy it? What? That’s funny. I’ve been denied the skill of copying by that god. I can’t do it, but she gives it to this hero…. I’ll definitely go to the goddess after the match is over.

But now I finally have a complete grasp of the abilities of all the heroes.
