Chapter 71: CH 71

My conversation with Rosa was interrupted by the sound of clapping hands.

Zelma had come to us with everyone who had been hiding.

「As expected, you’re active at the same party. It was a wonderful way of fighting.」

She was in a sickeningly good mood. It’s no wonder that everything is going according to Zelma’s plan. I’m sure she’s enjoying himself.

「Unfortunately, Lord Willy was killed in battle against the [Goblin Heroes]. He had only ever fought while being babysat, so it seems it was a heavy task for him. How shameful. I’ll have to complain to the head of the family.」

So that’s the plot this time, and she got rid of the people in her way?

I was curious about what the people around me thought, so I looked at their reactions.

Regina was just standing behind Zelma, following her, and from the outside it was impossible to read what she was thinking. Rosa and the slave man were not listening to her, as if they had nothing to do with it.

Sophie was curious, but for some reason she seemed to accept it. As a former Saint, she felt uncomfortable. I wondered if something had happened with Zelma.

「Well, we’ll investigate the dungeon later. We’ll return to Yang when we’ve finished collecting the magic stones.」

Following Zelma’s instructions, the slave man began to remove the magic stone from the nearby goblin. I pretended to pick up the stone and approached Sophie.

「If you have any thoughts, I’m all ears. I’m not good at patience.」

If she was upset with the aristocrat’s arrogance, I wanted to at least listen to her.

「Thank you for your concern. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have some feelings about Zelma-sama’s methods, but I’m convinced that it’s necessary for everyone to live happily together. …… Do you despise me for that?」

「No, of course not.」

I stroked Sophie’s head as she said with concern.

I don’t know what was troubling her. I can imagine that she has come to terms with her reality without pursuing an ideal.

She must have made a decision after prioritizing her interests as a normal human being, not as a former Saint.

It’s a necessary way of thinking when dealing with Noblemen. I’ve done similar things, so I’m not here to criticize, even if I do praise.

Now that my doubts were resolved, I was ready to start collecting the magic stones seriously.

At that moment, a chill ran through my body and I stopped moving.

「I’ve got just the right material. We can replenish the two we lost here.」

I looked up at the sky. There was a skeleton wearing a tattered cloak and a crown of thorns.

In his right hand, he held a long staff with a crescent moon ornament at the tip, which gave him an air of madness.

He seems to have a special ability to enhance cursed magic, and is constantly overflowing with unconcealed evil, contaminating his surroundings and intimidating us.

「「Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa.」」

The slave man with the luggage and the maid who was accompanying him went crazy and collapsed with white eyes, convulsing, but soon stopped moving, blowing bubbles.

They must have died because they had no magic power and could not resist.

「Was there anything other than the material?」

The scream seemed to have finally alerted them to our presence.

A high level undead has the ability to kill people just by being there. The most common example is [Lich], who is known as the “King of the Dead”, but the monster in front of me does not look like such a gentle thing.

From my experience with various monsters, my intuition is correct. My instincts whispered to me that it was something else.

「Get away.」

The crescent moon on his wand shines.

『Curse』

A cursed spell that randomly generated abnormalities such as poison, paralysis, petrification, and insanity was activated.

A translucent black shockwave, like a sticky liquid, is coming towards us. Ordinary magic could not prevent it, and the only way to counter it was with Holy magic.

Sophie, who had jumped out to protect us, activated her magic.

『Holy Circle』

A circle of light spread around the surgeon and collided with the Curse Magic.

[TN: Not sure about this line.]

A hail of magical power swept through the air, and in a few seconds the 2 magics had disappeared.

「Ho ~u, against my magic?」

[TN: He says “watashi”.]

He laughed, making an eerie sound from his chin.

He seemed to be enjoying the fact that his expectations were overturned.

There was the reserve of an absolute powerhouse.

「Interesting, let’s play a little.」

The crescent moon shines again.

『Create Undead』

The remaining flesh on the surrounding corpses decayed rapidly, leaving only bones, which rose up one after another. They have become undead.

The battle against the [Goblin Skeleton] was about to begin, with the creepy monsters in the sky above.
