As she thought this, the image of the crying and pitiful Gründ flashed into her mind with vivid detail.
The meat was carved using such precision that he wouldn’t die even as his head was picked up and was being devoured.
He had been desperately trying to crawl away until each of his limbs had been severed, his guts spilling out all across the floor in his futile attempt to escape.
He had stayed alive, while being consumed until the very end where it’s final sight was the two, cold eyes, of the Black demon as it was eaten.
This chilling image overwhelmed her mind.
(I’ll… be… guuh…. eaten…”)
The Black Demon opened his mouth a little, his sharp fangs made themselves visible. Their resemblance was that of white metal with red staining the interior.
His dreadful voice overflowed without any connection to his intentions. It was at the same time that she had finally lost the last of her strength in her legs and lower body to the point where she softly sat down on the spot, her abdomen became wet as a certain degree of freedom had overcame her senses.
Understanding what had just happened, her face began to burn with the sheer shame of what had just occurred, but her fear was suppressing any of these feelings as her body refused to get back up.
The reason for that is that the Black Demon’s eyes were locked to her own, her consciousness was solely fixed on him.
“Hmmm? Tired? Well…. ah, here, this will help.”
The Black Demon lightly said something, then he placed a high quality piece of cloth that was both long and narrow across Arty’s shoulders with his large, highly trained hand.
Arty had long since lost the ability to process the situation, her mind frozen and blank as her eyes could no longer even follow the shape of the figure speaking to her.
The words of the Black Demon echoed through her mind as it was as if all time had frozen, her mind simply couldn’t process what had just happened.
It wasn’t until the Black Demon’s presence had completely disappeared that she slowly began to regain her senses.
“Wh…. Whaa?..................... What in the …. world….”
Arty muttered this, but not even she heard herself say it.

The Cyclops boss monster that resided on the lowest floor was quite big, so it seemed that it would take some time to eat it’s entire body.
For that reason I decided to cut off the limbs and eat it while it was still alive so that it wouldn’t disappear on me.
I used the magical item 【Giant’s Long-Lasting Carving Knife】 which I had purchased at the Royal Capital to dismantle the Cyclops and gradually eat the delicious and crunchy flesh.
Ability learned:【Earth Shaking Hammer】
Ability learned:【Giant’s Bloodline】
I had gained two new abilities. Even setting 【Giant’s Bloodline】 aside for now, the 【Earth Shaking Hammer】 seemed as if it would be fairly useful.
However, the abilities are not really that particularly important to me this time. After I had completely devoured the Cyclops, the following broken into my vision.
