The term "Voracious Eater" is just an obfuscation,
the more appropriate term we use when talking to the public.
The true meaning denotes "Awakened Beings".
Miria!
O-Our information was wrong!
I heard it was an average Voracious Eater...
One as powerful as this one...
and we have to fight with this party?
What the...
D-Don't be joking...
A male Awakened Being?

So you're here, Galatea.
What will you have me do this time, Ermita?
That mountain.
You should be able to sense the Yoki from here.
Why... are there male Awakened Beings?
It's coming.
Dodge!
Deneve!
That tasted bad.
Why you...
Above you, Helen!
He's quick! Get away now!
Helen!
Number 47!
Clare!
That idiot!
Jumping in like that when she isn't even powerful enough!
You've got way too many of those arms, and it annoys me.
Let me make things easier!
Deneve!
I'll make you pay twice over!
Regeneration...
I don't believe this.
She's able to regenerate that much within this short a time.
Helen's extension of her arms isn't an easy skill to use either.
From the looks of her equipment,
she seems to be able to extend her legs to a certain extent as well.
Both techniques are only possible as one approaches her limits.
For them to use these techniques so naturally in the middle of a battle...
So you're still alive?
Back off if you want to keep it that way.
Your part here is done.
Shit, looks like cutting your arms off is meaningless unless your head drops.
How are things?
Can you tell?
There's one strong Yoki...
two average Yoki...
one small Yoki...
and one Yoki far greater than them all.
It's an Awakened Being.
An Awakened Being?
A male Awakened Being.
A male one...
How is it there's a male Awakened Being?
Don't Awakened Beings come from our final stages?
In early times, there were both male and female warriors.
Male?
In early times, we created male warriors, as well.
However, the male warriors were failures.
No, I shouldn't call them failures.
Male warriors were a success, actually.
We had no complaints about their strength.
The problem was male warriors surpassed their limits in a short amount of time...
since the awakening process brought them something akin to sexual pleasure.
Just by releasing their Yoma powers,
males couldn't control their impulse to go over their limits.
And thus...
we stopped creating male warriors...
Awakened males were thus let out into the wild as "Voracious Eaters", basically?
Exactly...
That is why we female warriors known as Claymores and male Awakened Beings came into being.
There's one major inaccuracy in that story.
Inaccuracy?
Indeed.
You should know what it is...
someone as smart as you...
You should know why the four of you were sent to me...
It can't be...
This party...
Losing your calm a bit, there?
Why you...
What is it?
There is disruption in the Yoki...
I sense instability and surprise...
I could tell even better if I got a bit closer.
Any closer and they'd sense our presence.
I called for you since you're the only one who can sense Yoki from this far away.
You sure make me do strange things.
Well then...
The time seems right now...
Allow me to give you girls...
a taste of true despair...
Everyone, dodge!
Why you...
Bastard!
So... how does it taste?
Helen...
Deneve...
Clare...
A pity...
In my opinion, you are a superior warrior.
You think deeply, and you're intelligent.
Warriors should not only be strong but should also possess a certain level of intelligence,
otherwise they won't be able to survive.
But those that are too intelligent... don't live long either...
Who... are you...
I'm just what you said.
The end result of past male warriors.
Nothing more, nothing less.
I kill off warriors that are sent to kill me.
That's all.
I see how it is.
Coming in.
Dinner is served.
Please enjoy.
Where's your companion?
Ah, she went to the mountains to carry out a job.
Eh?
The mountains?
That reminds me...
several Claymores went toward those mountains in the past, too...
I recall none of them came back...
Oh, no!
I didn't say anything.
Please enjoy your meal.
Clare...
She's already regenerating her abdomen, eh?
But she suffered far too much damage.
Her chances of survival are fifty-fifty...
I don't think this is the time for you to be worrying about your comrades.
I think it's much more realistic to be worrying about your own life!
This one's...
This is the end for you!
A mirage?
Her back injury is deep.
Her chances of survival are also fifty-fifty.
Either way, it's clear that they're not fit to fight anymore.
I see...
Although just for a split second,
you can move at lightning speed.
In that instant, you're faster than any warrior.
Your single-digit status isn't just for show, eh?
"What we see is but an illusion."
This is what they call you, right?
"Phantom Miria"...
But... I wonder if that technique will work against Awakened Beings?
Give it your best shot...
So you rush towards the jaws of death?
Why you...
She's amazing...
Damn it...
She should've done that from the beginning!
She probably wanted to reserve it for dealing the final blow.
She didn't want to use it until then.
The instantaneous bursts of Yoki aren't easy to deal with...
they exhaust her both mentally and physically...
Miria probably imposed a limit on herself as to how many times she can use it.
Ten times... no, twenty times at most...
Yet, now she has surpassed thirty...
She's being quite reckless right now...
What the hell do you know?
For being the lowest-ranked, don't talk like you know shit!
Gotcha now...
Miria!
I praise your efforts while fighting in that meager body of yours,
but it's nothing more than delaying your eventual fall.
I just needed to wait for you to reach your limit.
Now... how shall I torture you till your death?
Damn it!
It's no use...
My body...
My body can't move...
This...
This is...
the true despair he was talking about...
Despair?
A situation like this?
I have known a far more powerful opponent...
and have known what true despair was like.
Your... wounds...
H-Hold it!
How can you still stand with those injuries?
And there I was thinking what it could be...
The smallest Yoki and the weakest of them all?
H-Huh?
I-I can't hit her?
What's going on?
What's happening?
Could she... be...
Calm down.
Reduce my own Yoki to nothing...
and sense every other Yoki around me.
I must capture every bit of the Yoki... its size... its movement.
I should be able to grasp it all from the Yoki.
From the size and movement of the Yoki, I can predict all the courses of his attacks.
And that...
She's dodging them.
She already evaded even before he attacks.
I see!
The strange feeling I sensed back then...
She was fighting me by trying to read the flow of my Yoki.
Even under the conditions of our sparring while we hid our Yoki,
she was trying to decipher the Yoki inside me.
I can't hit her!
I can't hit her, damn it!
That means...
The stronger the Yoki and the more Yoma power an opponent lets out,
the easier it is for her to read it.
This method is perfect against Awakened Beings, as they completely unleash their Yoma power.
Don't tell me, she...
she continuously sharpened this particular skill just to fight against Awakened Beings?
What's the matter?
The tide of the battle has changed...
Really...
What is it with you?
I can't tell if you're strong or if you're weak...
You can move pretty well when just reading the flow of Yoki,
but once you switch to offense, your power drops.
You need to switch between modes instantly,
or you need to be able to read Yoki even while you're releasing your own Yoma powers.
Otherwise, it's pointless!
Miria!
In other words, you still need much more training!
I'm quite... aware of that.
W-Wait...
I can tell you what you girls want to know.
Watch out... below you.
I know.
I am a single-digit, you know.
There's much I want to ask you,
but it's not like you'll tell us the truth.
Here we go.
Don't fall behind.
Same to you.
To think I'm going to fall to you people!
fall to you people...
The end of a battle.
The beginning of a battle.
The warriors' oath.
