Chapter Title: Capturing Envy
-----------------------------------------------------------------
“Envy.”
Huddled in the corner, she bit her nails.
She had witnessed the world beyond.
Far more brilliant than the bleak, purposeless ruins outside.
“You adapted well and lived there.”
Once, they had been the same being.
But now, the demon Penny lived happily, even with a name.
She knew Penny had lost all her power and become frail.
“Ugh, I’m so envious I feel like puking...”
Yet she could feel happy emotions.
That made her even more envious.
“Judak...”
The reason this outside—this vast space—couldn’t devour that colorful world was simple.
Because Judak, that existence, was there.
That being protected the powerless Penny.
“Why...?”
She had been the weakest among them.
Now without any power.
Why was she happier and more joyful than me, eating delicious things and laughing?
But even with this jealousy, she couldn’t cross over.
She could only peek at that world through the cracks when the outside permitted it.
-Hummm.
“Not anymore.”
But for some reason, the outside had changed.
It even opened a crack freely, though just one.
Usually, she couldn’t go out and was kept locked away, but now she could go and return.
“Now... it’s mine.”
Envy rose to her feet and walked toward the crack.
To steal Penny’s and make it her own.

Fuck off
What an ugly bitch, and she sucks at games too

- LMAO Dwarf couldn’t hold back and started cursing
- But she’s kinda OP tho ;
- Ripping paper is one thing, but ripping metal? What even?
ㄴ Fr, she’s tearing dwarf-forged metal weapons
ㄴ (Aaah so scary elf con)
Official notice: Envy’s back.
With a horde of beasts in tow.
But the beast army was just aggro bait.
She alone swept the battlefield, dealing real damage to the dwarves.
Casually smashing their vaunted dwarf-forged weapons with her bare hands.
-CRUNCH!
“Huh?”
The one thing that worked was steel, after all.
A steel sword lodged in Envy’s shoulder.
But that didn’t mean they had the advantage.
“This one’s made by Judak too?”
Envy just stared at the steel sword in wonder.
“Guh, you monstrous freak of a monster!”
In the end, the dwarf had no choice but to drop the steel sword and retreat.
Even then, Envy fiddled with the sword embedded in her arm.
“Die!”
A nearby dwarf lobbed a grenade at her.
-KABOOM!
A harsh explosion, red smoke billowing up.
“Got her!”
He shouted desperately, but when the smoke cleared, only a bit of her face was scraped.
-Slither.
“Killgroth preserve us!”
Even that regenerated in seconds.
“This one’s made by Judak too...”
Far from panicking, she admired it, touching her face.
“Impressive. Makes me even more envious.”
Soon, her face twisted into a demonic grimace.
“To think you lot were enjoying this world all to yourselves.”
Seized by jealousy, her body trembled, and she went berserk.
“Grahhh...”
“Kieeeek!”
Beasts and dwarves alike around her were torn apart.
“Envy... Envy... Envy...!”
“This ugly monster...”
Even the dwarves recoiled in horror at her doll-like mutterings.
“Not yet!”
King Tadain shouted from the front lines.
The new magic his brother Judak had given the dwarves.
“It’s ready now!”
A hidden dwarf burst out and pulled the trigger.
-Shunk.
“Ah?”
Something lodged in Envy’s neck as she raged.
Pitiful compared to the destructive weapons she’d seen before.
Envy reached up and found a sharp metal shard at the end.
“You think this’ll stop me?”
It would’ve been fatal to a normal being, but she was immortal.
The thought that these weaklings were enjoying Judak’s gallery.
That they savored happiness she couldn’t.
She was about to fly into a fury from head to toe.
Judak*: How you holding up? Sleepy?
“Judak...?”
Judak*: You’ve been octoped.
The gallery popped up in front of the dwarves, and Judak’s chat appeared.
Some kind of spell, apparently.
Envy smirked darkly.
“No idea what it is, but it won’t be enough?”
Judak*: Yeah?
“You’re underestimating me way too much.”
She specialized in close combat, but she was still one of the Seven Deadly Sins.
To cast magic on an opponent, you needed to vastly outclass them or drain their mana.
And Envy was more confident in her mana than anyone.
She was about to scoff.
“But I’ll have to give it my all... Huh?”
She couldn’t finish.
This feeling of strength draining from her body.
“What?”
As Envy tilted her head in confusion.
“Hyuuung.”
-Thud.
She collapsed with a deflating whimper and fell asleep.
*
“Gotcha, you bastard.”
Envy captured.
Good thing they’d loaded it with extra anesthetic, just in case.
Penny gazed at the bound Envy with mixed feelings.
“...Caught easier than I thought.”
She’d figured it’d take smashing a few city blocks or dragging on for days.
The gallery reactions were more like “Knew it’d go like this.”
- But yeah felt like it’d end up this way
ㄴ Fr lmao
ㄴ Knights don’t worry, and neither does Judak—that’s the rule
- Judak*) Dude she’s immortal, total cheat
ㄴ Immortality’s just basic...
ㄴ Cheat or not, third time asking if spicy tuna’s hitting the market today
ㄴ Judak*) Nope
ㄴ This shitty timing!!!! No!!!!!
ㄴ No way... this can’t be real...
They cared more about spicy tuna.
Envy bait was barely her outfit.
[Title: Seriously need to punish her, upvote if agree]

Can’t stand by as a knight
My [Gigantic Steel Greatsword] inside me is howling...

[Title: Rate this plot idea I came up with...txt]
(Frog with hand on chin smirking GIF)
So it’s a heroine story
She thinks she’s super strong
And she kinda is, beats up trash mobs and named bosses
Then spots someone she likes and charges to dominate with force...
But gets perfectly reverse-raped, freaks out, and passes out ㅇㅇ
Dragged to enemy camp, now awaits her fate before the furious natives... Whaddya think?

- Pretty slutty lol
- O
- Wise young man
- Lol but who actually thinks like that?
- Humans always got that on the brain huh?
- Ugh, no shame I guess
ㄴ What would Lord Judak say?
“No, not even that.”
“Huh...?”
Then the bound Envy slowly lifted her head.
Seeing her predicament, her eyes widened like a startled rabbit.
She tried flexing her arms, but the anesthetic coursed through her.
No strength, and they’d chained her steel cuffs to the floor.
“...How.”
As Envy panicked, a chat went up.
Judak*: Eyes open? Check Isekai Destruction Gallery
“Judak? What’d you do to me?”
Unaware she’d be subdued like this, she looked up in bewilderment.
“Can’t feel any mana.”
Judak*: Everyone says that
“No average spell could cast on my mind that easily.”
Envy glanced around, then shrugged casually.
“Fine, impressive. Way stronger than I thought.”
No panic or fear, even cornered.
“So, what’re you gonna do with me?”
She even leaned toward the gallery like it amused her.
-Clank.
Of course, the chains yanked her down unceremoniously.
Envy looked up from the floor, licking her lips.
“Judak, you know what? I’m even more into you now. Subduing me this easily.”
-CRUNCH.
The mood shifted as the cuffs scraped under her strength.
“Mad already?”
She could’ve dodged if she wanted.
But getting caught off-guard like this, it’d be natural to be pissed—or so she thought.
“Makes me even more envious!”
Judak*: Wat?
“I want you so bad now. Sigh, didn’t plan to go this far...”
A red glow enveloped Envy as she bit her lower lip hard.
-Chomp.
With that, the dead beasts began rising slowly.
“Say hi. My special immortal beast legion.”
The beasts rose again.
“No, this is straight-up cheating.”
I was speechless for a sec.
Almost.
“But kinda half-assed?”
Maybe from dying and reviving.
They didn’t fully resurrect—more like clumsily stumbling up.
Most were rock golems, covered in damage.
“So not really immortal after all?”
I’d figured they’d recover even from dust, but limits exist.
“Hahaha! What now, Judak?”
I ignored her taunting on-screen and opened the shop.
Then splurged on one item.
[Spent 16,425p.]
“Oof, there goes my blood money!”
Pricey, but no regrets.
If it works, perfect for issues like this.
[Item delivered to destination!]
-Thud!
Thaldru: Bro, brother
Thaldru: Giant steel hunk fell from the sky—what the hell is it?
A massive object delivered before the dwarves.
Big enough for people—or rocks.
Seeing its creepy design, they asked me half-curious, half-scared.
Judak*: That?
The star of those once-viral vids testing destructive limits.
Judak*: Metal shredder yeah
A shredder that pulverizes everything to dust.
-Whirrrrr
It roared to life.
“...Huh?”
Envy’s smug face drained of color in an instant.
