Chapter 39
Chapter 39 .
Author note:
I got a lot of ideas from everyone about lightning magic and I’ll leave it dormant for now .
After the end of this fight I plan to have the experints continue .
=========================================================
The sun had set while we were practicing other magic . Then, we returned from the Goblin Village back to town .
Before we head back to the hotel, we dropped by Thill’s shop to hand off so production requests . There are several necessary things for next ti’s experints .
He said the requests will be finished tomorrow at the earliest . We decided to head out back to the Demon’s Wilderness tomorrow to hunt again .
We returned to the hotel . We took our als on the first floor where the combination of dining room and bar is located . By the ti we’re done, it’s already pitch black outside .
When we return to the room in order to rest, Ayla leads to the bed while smiling . (TN: Laid ti~)
[N,no . We’re going to hunt tomorrow so I want to conserve our stamina . ]
Amy ca to while holding a large amount of dicine vials . It’s the [Youth dicine] that she created in the village .
I steel myself and lay down . Zir, who tries to run away, was caught by Ayla by the arm .
When the number of comrades increases, I don’t want anyone to be left out . Let’s all happily enjoy it together .
***
[NyamNyam… Hafu]
Zir embraced from the front while sitting on my lap and bites my neck while imrsed in the afterglow . Zir often does this in this situation .
[Oi, Zir . Don’t bite seriously]
Zir bites carefully with her fangs, but she isn’t loosening up on her strength .
[Pi-cha . Kufufu, master doesn’t change even if I suck your blood after all . ]
Zir whispered happily while licking up my blood that oozed out from the wound . I wonder what she’s so happy about?
『For a Vampire, the act of sucking blood is like a courting act, I see . It seems it’s also possible to have so pillow talk while doing it . 』
It’s coldly analysing the situation from the sidelines . Isn’t it too interested in this stuff? I’ll start calling this book the [Lewd Book] instead, darn it .
Although the wound has stopped bleeding, Zir seems to keep sticking to it . I pull her off sohow and put her back to bed .
Ayla and Amy who were sleeping next to each other like logs in the bed show satisfactory smiles . [Youth dicine] is aweso .
My stamina and magic were exhausted after my blood was sucked by Zir . I need to increase my Stamina if I want to keep doing this from now on .
I laid down and thought about drinking a potion to recover and sleep like this .
At that ti, a ghost ca out from the wall .
If I didn’t get used to seeing ghosts since a few days ago, I might have scread a little .
I turn towards my bed with the intention of falling into it .
[Watch out!!]
Zir shouts loudly to get my attention . I activate shock magic on my right hand imdiately and turned around .
When the magic in my right hand made contact with the ghost, it made a ‘bachi’ sound and the ghost disappeared .
[That is a nightmare ghost . It inflicts [Nightmare], which in the worst case can lead to death]
[I’ll just ask to be sure, but this isn’t one of your ghosts, is it Zir?]
Maybe she slept feeling disgusted after having a evening festival (TN: lewd feast) every night to the point of running out of stamina?
[That’s not one my ghosts . also, I’m not really all that disgusted . … at the mont . ]
She let out a weird voice . However, This ans there is another necromancer who employs ghosts beside Zir .
Not just that, but this guy sent a ghost who’s able to cause a potentially lethal abnormal state .
[It’s strange but there are zombies in this town . There are only a couple of them right now, but they could overwhelm the town before long .
Zir explained the situation while showing a genuinely displeased face .
I wake up both Ayla and Amy imdiately . Even though it’s an ergency I have a hard ti bringing myself to wake these two girls up who sleep so happily .
[Ayla, Amy, sorry but please wake-up]
Both woke up at once when I called them and shook their bodies . I passed them a physical recovery potion and explained the situation to them .
[So, what will we do?]
[Let’s try attacking the ringleader for now . Zir has guessed what monster is controlling the zombies . The two of you should take shelter in the goblin’s village just in case . ]
[No way, I’m going with you . ]
[Duo and the rest are just outside town so I can call them right away too . ]
[I won’t allow it . Please be obedient . I’ll have you help when I can no longer manage it . ]
[It seems the situation is already beyond Master’s control . ]
Zir poured water over our conversation . (EN: she interrupted/ruined it)
[What do you an?]
[A horde of monsters have gathered on the outskirts of town from the Monster Wilderness and forest . These seem to be the main force . ]
When hearing the detailed explanation from Zir, A large horde of monsters seems to be heading right for us through the east and west gates .
The Zombies earlier seem to have been only a beginning . The horde will seemingly arrive in about 4 hours .
After hearing this I explain our strategy to the others . This is a situation we cannot handle by ourselves . We need more people .
Amy will go to the Adventurer’s Guild and explain the situation . Maybe the commotion in town is already being noticed by the guild .
It may be hard to convince the others, but it’s better than doing nothing .
We need people from the guild to fight the current zombies and wake people from their [Nightmare] affliction so we can properly prepare for the monster horde .
Ayla and Raru will prepare for combat in the Goblin’s village . I’m planning to prepare several tricks from the forest side .
Zir and I will defeat the [Zombie Mother] and head to the Adventurer’s Guild . Afterwards, most likely we will participate in the start of strategy eting .
After everyone got their tasks, I instructed them to run away when they are in danger .
[Okay everyone, absolutely don’t do anything dangerous . ]
[Yes . Master, please take care too]
[I’ll make sure to move out with Raru’s group imdiately]
After separated with the two others, Zir and I move out to defeat the [Zombie Mother] .
The [Zombie Mother] seems to be moving around the Lord’s Castle . After Zir guided we found a zombie with the appearance of a pregnant woman walking around randomly .
[Is it this one?]
[Yes it is, Master . Let’s defeat it quickly]
Zir answered while desperately turning her face away . It’s still quite painful to cut the pregnant woman even though it’s zombie . I decided to erase it with fire magic .
The fire from my hand burns the zombie .
After doing so for 30 seconds the flas slowly dispersed and the zombie is barely intact .
When I tried to finish it with another fla attack a pale light wraps the zombie mother and recovered its whole body .
Although I say that, since it’s a zombie originally its body returns to being a gooey and sloppy ss .
[This is the sa thing like with the Skeleton Warrior]
[Yeah . Most likely the magic is being supplied automatically]
It has recognized us as an enemy after being attacked, so the Zombie Mother moves in our direction .
[Good thing I fought and undead once before already . ]
Saying so, I pour the magic that defeated the Skeleton Warrior into my sword .
I swing the magic-clad sword and aim for the neck of the Zombie Mother .
The head went flying and lts away in the air .
The remaining body collapses smoothly and disappears .
[I saw it when you dueled with my Skeleton Warrior too . What magic is that?]
[I strengthened my weapon with healing magic . A healer can use healing magic to filter out black magic from a victim, and because undead are filled with pure black magic I can use healing magic to completely remove all their power – making regeneration impossible . ]
Healing magic usually defeats zombies in gas . Although I only tried to copy this, it worked out well in the end .
The healing magic sword finally gets a chance to be recognized . There are zombies still lurking around the town .
There’s a crowd in front of the Adventurer Guild when we arrived after finishing the clean-up of the zombies in town .
[Master, over here!]
Amy waved at us from inside the building .
When we are able to get through the crowd and enter the building we’re brought to so kind of conference room . There are around 20 people inside .
[You are Hibiki, right?]
I took a seat at the far back of the room after entering, and was imdiately addressed by an older guy .
[Yes . I am]
This uncle is the branch-head of the adventurer guild in this town . I heard he is the local lord as well .
Although it’s a town filled with adventurers, there are few people skilled enough to hold 2 major positions concurrently .
[Is the information that girl brought true?]
Without any idle chat he gets right down to business . This uncle seems quite excellent .
[Yeah, the horde of monsters approaches from the forest and wilderness . Most likely they will arrive in this town in about two hours]
[Don’t lie to us!! Do you have any evidence!?]
An idiot flares up…
[If you don’t believe it that’s fine with too . If you guys aren’t going to do anything we’ll just leave town]
The others in the room start to get noisy . I continue without minding it .
[The number of monsters is around 1600 . about 800 each for both the east and the west . It’s likely they are aiming for the gates]
[Preposterous! Currently there’s no more than just 300 people who are able to fight, including the soldiers!]
What Seyra said is the truth . The enemies outnumber us five to 1 or worse . We will be overpowered even with the town walls .
[Hibiki, why do you have such detailed information?]
Because of the lord’s question the others beca noisy again . They’re suspicious of .
[There is a necromancer in my party . Because a strange ghost entered into our room we inspected the town . Doing so we found the zombies wandering around and we ended up examining the surrounding of the town as well . Thus, we found the horde of monsters]
People reacted again when I ntioned a necromancer . Are you guys reaction perforrs or sothing?
[How did things end up like this anyway!?]
[Are the zombies and ghosts in town not perhaps your own forces?!]
It’s the sa idiot who shouted in the beginning too . I’ll rember this guy’s face and na . I glared at the idiot’s face . It’s a coward .
[The barking of a weakling . So adventurer you are . ]
[What!?]
The idiot turned on after I provoked him . It’s a genuine moron .
[Don’t you bastards go blaming your own weakness on others!! Do the adventurers in this town shake in their boots because of sothing on this level? Adventurers from an adventurer-town sure have a top-class ability to turn tail . ]
The surrounding adventurers sent hostile glares toward for my words . Although it’s a critical situation, we should still be able to manage with this number of people . They’re all guys with adequate levels after all .
[I don’t know if I should trust you]
The Lord said while shaking his head . .
[I believe in him]
The voice ca from Feryu .
[To begin with, These guys could have happily fled just by themselves but ca to tell us anyway . Instead of being thankful you lot can only resent them]
[Also, I know these fellows fairly well . [Annihilation] are not bad guys]
[Annihilation] isn’t well-known in this town . Feryu begins to speak fluently about the events with the sharp wolves .
Probably because the Divine Protections are being brought-up the people begin to believe it .
[But, the enemies are more than five tis our own war potential]
The Lord said half-complaining .
[Please leave the West Gate to us, we’ll do sothing about it]
[Are you sure can do it?]
I say a phrase I haven’t used for a while .
[I have [Divine Protection] after all]
