Within the fragments of Jǫrmungandr, Fenrir was sealing the energy of destruction inside his body to avoid detection by the Black Tower.

“It’s almost time!”

Fenrir was putting the final touches on the nearly completed sealing process.

A moment later.

Woong.

“Kekeke. It’s done.”

The core, with the energy of destruction sealed within, was completed.

Thanks to this, Fenrir’s power was significantly weakened, but even the faint power leaking from the sealed core was much stronger than the power of the fragments of the Apostle of Destruction.

Thud.

“Ugh. This is a bit uncomfortable. I need to change my body.”

His current body was made to withstand great power, making it difficult to move even a single step with his current strength.

Swoosh.

Fenrir reconfigured his body to match his weakened power.

“Just wait! You vermin of the Black Tower. I, Fenrir, the god-devouring wolf and the first seat among the Apostle of Destruction, will show you my terror! Kekekek.”

As Fenrir was about to show the inhabitants of the Black Tower his terror with a sinister laugh,

Ting!

Something pierced through the gap in Fenrir’s reconfiguring body and struck the core.

And then,

“Huh?!”

The shock caused Fenrir’s core to be ejected from his body.

The attack that pierced through a moment lasting less than 0.00001 seconds and hit Fenrir’s core was Theo’s One-Meow Slash.

It was a stroke of luck for all beings in the Black Tower, but a misfortune for Fenrir.

However, Fenrir’s misfortune was not over yet.

Ssss.

The ejected core of Fenrir continued to escape as the body of the Jǫrmungandr fragment turned to dust,

······

The vertical speed approached zero due to gravity, and it began to fall downwards.

Whine!

[Grr!]

Trying desperately to catch his core with his incredibly weakened body, reconfigured after the core was ejected,

Piyo!

Snap!

A tiny creature snatched it away.

Kking! Kking!!!

[Let it go! My core!!!]

As a result, Fenrir could only helplessly flail and watch as his falling core was beyond his reach.

Kking!

[I’ll kill you!]

Thus, Fenrir expressed his rage and sent murderous intent towards the leader-looking creature among the tiny ones,

Squeeze.

“Puhuhut. &%#@”

The leader-looking creature let out a villainous laugh and spoke in an incomprehensible language, then stamped its front paw on something.

For Fenrir, who had lived for thousands of years, it was the worst misfortune in a very short period of less than 10 minutes.

The unluckiest day in Fenrir’s life.

“Puhuhut. I’ve got a splendid subordinate, meow! Today, I, Vice Chairman Theo, am working hard as always, meow!”

Of course, for Theo, it was the best day.

And then,

Piyo?

[Theo~nim, I’m still above this guy, right?]

Piyot looked anxiously at Fenrir.

Somehow, it seemed highly probable that a higher-ranking officer had just been added.
