DanMachi, My Members Are From Slice-of-Life Anime

If word got out that someone was captured by a child from the mortal realm and became a "divine being," their peers would laugh them to death.

To avoid becoming a laughingstock, Thanatos chose to remain silent.

He wouldn't tell Valetta and the others that almost all the members of the dark factions in the man-made labyrinth were now Shadows.

Originally, he planned to lie low for the time being and play along with these righteous bitches, hoping that Valetta and the others could prove him wrong. Unexpectedly, Olivas, that idiot, broke the ice.

"What an idiot," Thanatos scoffed.

“You’re right,” Shadow echoed Death’s words, approaching Olivas.

"Fools have no value in living."

He reached out, and this time no one stopped him. His magically glowing fingers easily pierced Olivas's skin, pulling a colorful magic stone from his chest.

"No, no! You can't do this!" Olivas cried out, but the cursed greatsword on his shoulder threatened his life.

He now only has two choices: beheading or having the magic stone extracted from him.

"Dust to dust, ashes to ashes; the dead, return to hell. Redemption belongs only to the virtuous."

boom--

The white-haired ghost turned to ashes and scattered throughout the labyrinth.

Kaguya then walked up to Shadow, carrying Valetta.

"What should we do with this guy? Kill him?"

Shadow pinched Valetta's chin, playing with it:

"This is a rare level 5, it's such a waste to kill it like this. As a senior, you should think about the juniors a little. You can't handle everything cleanly, otherwise you won't feel involved."

Kid, what's wrong with you?

Kaguya raised an eyebrow. "You seem to be a junior too. Why do you sound so shrewd... Anyone who didn't know better would think we're the newbies."

However, Shadow's suggestion is quite good.

Seedlings need to be tempered by wind and rain; leaving them as whetstones for those little guys is also a good idea.

Although she was reluctant to admit it, in this world, killing people yielded far more experience than killing monsters.

“You’re right.” Kaguya drew her weapon and spared Valetta’s life.

Valetta spat out a mouthful of blood and said viciously:

"what on earth do you want?"

“How about that?” Shadow slapped Valetta across the face. “See? Balcasan is quite pragmatic.”

Valetta looked at the sorcerer who had raised his hands, looking completely indifferent.

"Don't you have any backbone? They've invaded your labyrinth!"

Barka said indifferently:

"My only wish is for the completion of the labyrinth. Whether it is loyalty to justice or darkness, it makes no difference to me."

"At least, compared to you, my hands are probably much cleaner than those rats and gentians over there."

Alexandra remained silent.

Barka is right.

Although this person did many outrageous things in order to build the maze and gain the corresponding abilities.

But having devoted 99% of his energy to building the labyrinth, he was actually more pure than Kaguya, who was born in the Far East Dark Side, and Lyra, who was born in the city of sinners.

He has a chance to atone for his sins!

Barka sneered: "It's the weapon that kills, not the craftsman who forged it. Righteous young ladies, I know you, you won't do anything to me. The city also needs architects like me to guard its labyrinth!"

Chapter 516 The Curtain of Light and Darkness

"Of course, Dix is ​​the same. What did he do? Torture monsters? Send monsters to the surface? Haha, as long as the desires of those nobles don't disappear, nothing will end."

Dix, clutching his cramping stomach, added:

"You could have wiped us out long ago. You only made your move today because that idiot Olivas exposed your lies."

"What do you want to do by leaving us, these remnants of the army, behind?"

Leila's eyebrows shot up:

"What you said is true, but your tone really makes me uncomfortable. Let's just kill him. Releasing a tiger back into the mountains seems rather foolish."

Werewolf Niz shrugged and said:

"Didn't Shadow-chan say that they still have value?"

Aste waved his fist: "It's strange, but it's my first time participating in a project like this, and it's quite interesting."

Shadow shrugged: "It doesn't matter. Before absolute power, all resistance is meaningless."

Kaguya quipped, "Here it comes! The villainous boss will definitely say that line, and then get killed by the invincible protagonist who unleashes his full power!"

Alexandra: "It seems the main character is our captain. That's alright then."

Just a week ago, they received a congratulatory telegram from Ryu.

Their clan successfully subjugated one of the three major subspecies they had been entrusted with, achieving remarkable feats.

It is understood that although the subspecies of Behemoth is not as strong as the original, it has the ability to generate more monsters.

Sometimes, increasing quantity is more troublesome than crushing quality.

Not only that, they also knew that Xia Jia had punched that huge thing right through it. That was a 500-meter-high mountain!

It's all over in seconds. How can the Dark Faction, now that it's on its last legs, really shout out the end and destroy the world ahead of time?

Thinking of this place, Alexie knelt on one knee, smiling brightly, and said:

"Lord Shadow, all shadows will submit to your feet."

This is... they've started playing around.

"As expected of you, Alicia..." Kaguya covered her face.

The crowd's oblivious conversation ignited Valetta's fury:

"Dream on! Do you think we'd obediently cooperate with you? Stop dreaming!"

She spat out a mouthful of blood and said coldly:

"Kill me if you dare, otherwise I'll chop off your head when I get the chance!"

Shadow glanced sideways at Killer Emperor.

"I'll make you behave. Hmm... for example..."

"Huh?" Valetta scoffed.

Shadow bent down and whispered seductively in Valetta's ear: "For example... letting you fight Finn one-on-one... or even a seriously injured Finn."

"This……"

Valetta hesitated, then asked hopefully, "Are you telling the truth? Would your Familia of Justice do such a thing?"

"I have never lied," Shadow said, straightening his back and spreading his hands in a solemn oath.

"The end of the world is about to begin, and the world needs to change!"

"I will be the final test for the heroes, to measure whether they have the capacity to step into the abyss with me and redeem the world."

Thanatos's expression changed slightly:

"Are you trying to emulate Erebus? Using us as stepping stones?"

"No! You spirits of the past want to become nourishment for heroes! You are also the resources provided for the birth of heroes!"

Valette's expression was incredibly complicated.

This wasn't the first time she'd experienced a hero of the past siding with the darkness. The more excited she'd been then, the more desperate she was now.

"Madman." She scoffed.

The shadows did not deny it.

Following Death's words, they continued:

"Whether the shadows will devour Finn (the light) or the light will pierce the darkness, the answer will soon be revealed."

……

Alexandra then realized, "Oh, so we're just stepping stones. That doesn't seem so bad."

The idea of ​​the dead being resurrected is too shocking. People with such identities are perhaps destined not to become heroes who face the end.

Becoming a stepping stone for the next generation seems like a pretty good thing.

Alexie thought to herself nonchalantly.

Then, Kaguya slapped him on the head and whispered:

"Idiot, if you let Ryu kill you again, that child will be too pitiful."
