Fate’s skill is Gluttony, a curse that leaves him constantly hungry…until he awakens its terrible potential. When he kills someone, he can devour their skills and feed his insatiable appetite. How many lives will it take for Fate’s Gluttony to finally be satisfied?

BERSERK OF...DESTINY?At long last, the party arrives at Hausen, where Fate and the others are welcomed by Set, a childhood friend, and witness a remarkable recovery! The team thought they could collect information on Myne settings and have a chance to catch their collective breath, but then Libra appears before Snow, the true potential of the Gluttony skill is revealed, and a young boy's destiny is set into motion!

FRIEND, FOE—AND FAMILYMyne’s disappearance has left Fate reeling, but as the new head of the Barbatos family, he must be strong. At first he’s focused on reforging a bond with his former tormenter and new sister, Memil. Then a grim encounter critically endangers Roxy’s soul, and Fate must find a way to protect her before his Gluttony devours her once and for all. But as he searches, unexpected answers to old mysteries begin to emerge—and the truths Fate uncovers about his own heritage prove as dangerous and strange as they are difficult to swallow.

RAVENING FOR REVENGEFate has arrived in monster-infested Galia. But before he can continue to Babylon, the sentinel city where Lady Roxy is stationed, he must first fulfill his promise to Myne by putting down a powerful, ancient weapon. Then, just when he finally reaches his destination, Fate runs afoul of another mysterious woman, Eris, who confronts him with a terrible truth!

HUNGRY HUNTERFate has a new quest: chase down Myne and close the Door to Distant Lands—and maybe get some answers out of his resurrected father. This time, however, he’s heading out with a whole party in tow, including Eris, Memil, and Roxy. But Fate’s not the only one wrestling with this new camaraderie. Roxy’s glad to finally be fighting by Fate’s side, but she knows she won’t be able to stay there unless she too reaches the Domain of E…if she can survive it.

FAMISHED FOR A FIGHTDetermined to protect Roxy from a plot to sacrifice her, Fate joins the battle to defend Babylon against a stampede of monsters. But his mission is complicated by the appearance of a masked man wielding a Weapon of Mortal Sin. Can Fate keep both Roxy and himself alive, all while hiding his true identity from her?

Fate finally locates Myne in Hausen, the domain of which he is lord and protector. It has always been Fate’s aim to save Myne from herself, but now the alternative comes at too high a cost to bear: should Fate fail to rescue his errant companion, the mysterious Libra threatens to rain destruction on everything he holds dear. But Fate will have to overcome more than Myne in the depths of Hausen — he’ll have to face the darkness of her past and the truth of their forsaken world.Series Overview: Fate Graphite has never tasted real power.
