Hundreds Years After I Was Called Just Corpse, I’ve Become Strongest Undead When I Woke Up

Chapter 49: A Lot of Monsters

===A Certain Undead With Communication Disorder===

GURUAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

ORA

BUGYAA?!

The tiger monster that was bounding toward me was blown away in one punch.

GEKO!

Oopsie!

Moreover, though the frog monster attacked me with its elongated tongue, I dodged it with ease, closing in the distance between us and landing a kick to its stomach.

The frog was blown away a hundred meters back, crashing against two or three monsters behind its back.

Why are there so many monsters here?

I crossed the border into the Raoul Kingdom. As soon as I did so, I was surrounded by thirty monsters the moment I stepped inside the kingdom.

At first, they only appeared every now and then, but then, the frequency of their appearance increased the deeper I went into Raoul Kingdom's territory until I reached the current situation.

The frequency of their appearance was clearly abnormal.

It seemed a monster outbreak happened right in this very kingdom.

And this outbreak might be the reason why the people abandoned their villages and cities.

I could say this after I saw several abandoned villages along the way. They were abandoned just recently too.

The inhabitants of those villages definitely escaped from their villages.

How troublesome Maybe I should just release my mana.

Despite their numbers, all of them were small fry who had no chance to kill me.

But since beating them one by one was too much trouble, I decided to release the mana that I had suppressed to a normal level.

~??!

At that moment, the frenzied monsters that were rearing to tear me apart suddenly got frightened.

They realized right away that they couldn't win against me the moment they felt my mana.

And escaped with their tail between their legs.

Their figures vanished in just a few seconds after I released my mana.

Well then, let's continue the journey.

I kept walking forward at my leisurely pace.

But then, I got surrounded by monsters again after walking for a while.

Hey, hey, what's the meaning of this? Is what I want to say, these guys are

The ones who surrounded me were undead, such as zombies and skeletons.

They didn't get scared upon feeling my mana. It was the opposite; they got attracted to my mana instead.

They were not going to attack me. They just followed me from behind, matching my walking speed.

Although the undead weren't living beings, I could feel their respect for me.

They might have followed me knowing that I was a superior undead.

Unfortunately, I didn't feel like getting along with them.

Please go to the next world already.

I thought so as I imagined the feeling when I invoked fireball before.

OAAAAAA

The most unbelievable thing was the fact that I saw their souls leave their bodies, ascending to the heavens.

Eh? Did that mean I don't actually have to burn them with a fireball?

It seemed that I could easily purify the undead just by thinking about it. I didn't even need to use a fireball on them.

The bodies of these zombies and skeletons crumbled down the moment their souls left their bodies.

W~a~

Yeah, yeah, you guys may go to that world too.

OAAAAAA

Like this, I purified all the undead who approached me while I was walking with leisure.

And then as I continued on my way

A city.

I saw the silhouette of a town.

Since it had a splendid rampart, maybe it was still safe from the monster's raid.

Or so I thought, but upon entering the half-destroyed gate, I found out that the city had already been abandoned by its inhabitants.

Instead of people, I found a lot of monsters walking around the city like it was their own home. It seemed that not even this city could withstand the monster invasion. Thus, its citizens evacuated.

But different from the villages I saw along the way, the monster raid must be so bad to the point that a city of this size could fall.

That said, the number of the monsters must be beyond what they could handle.

Moreover, the kingdom should've dispatched reinforcements to help if it was a city of this size. There must be a reason for this monster outbreak. Shall I go look for that reason?

Although I guessed that there must be some sort of reason for this monster outbreak, unfortunately, that was all I could think of at this point.

Anyhow, I started strolling on the main street of the city while thinking about doing a bit of investigation.

Since I'd already suppressed my mana, the monsters in the city would rush at me the moment I entered their line of sight.

Upon looking around, I understood one thing: this city was abandoned less than one day ago.

The reason was that I found all kinds of goods scattered around in the place that looked like a market.

Although fresh food was already spoiled, the preserved food was still edible.

Well, though I had no need for food due to being undead, I also wouldn't be affected by rotten food even if I ate it.

O-ONII-CHAN!

WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR, IDIOT! RUN!!

At that moment, I heard the voices of two people who looked like they were shouting at each other.

There's still human in this city?

I ran in the direction of those voices.

After running for a while (which looked more like flying slightly above the ground thanks to my speed), I finally arrived at a place that looked like an old rampart.

It wasn't just old and weathered by long years, its height was also far shorter compared to the rampart that surrounded the city.

Maybe it was the oldest building in this city which was built a really long time ago and left alone without being demolished even after the city expanded and built a new, bulkier, and taller rampart.

I saw a pair of siblings being surrounded by monsters near that rampart.

The little sister was around 10 years old while the big brother was around 15 years old.

The big brother held a sword in his hand while the little sister held a bow. Seeing them, I guess that they might have some degree of mastery in martial arts.

But their opponent was a troll whose height and width surpassed both of the kids by miles.

Looking at the impatient expression on their faces, I pretty much guessed that they were far weaker than the troll.

I-IF WE FIGHT TOGETHE

STOP FOOLING AROUND! I'LL DISTRACT IT! USE THAT TIME TO GET AWAY FROM THIS PLACE AS FAST AS POSSIBLE!

It seemed the big brother intended to sacrifice his own life to buy time for his little sister to get into the old rampart.

GUHI

But for some reason, the troll looked at them with a sadistic smile on its face. It suddenly swung the club in its hand toward the little sister.

??!!

R-RUUUUUUUUUUN!

The little sister was frozen on the spot, unable to move due to fear upon seeing the club which was bigger than her body coming toward her.

Her brother ended up screaming in vain.

Pash.

Eh?

And just like that, the little sister's body turned into mincemeator so they thought, for some reason, the club was stopped.

Well, that was natural since I slipped in between the girl and the club and stopped that blow.

Yup, that was a close call.

If I arrived even a moment later, this little sister might've already been turned into mincemeat for real.

GUE?

The troll couldn't hide its surprise upon seeing me stop its blow.

Here my return gift.

I forcefully threw back the club toward its own owner.

The club returned with an even faster speed than before, striking right on the troll's bulging stomach.

BAAM!

~??!

The troll's stomach literally blew to bits.

The club didn't even stop after creating a hole in the troll's stomach. It kept going on, destroying two or three houses behind the troll.

A, afuu

The troll then collapsed in its own pool of blood beneath its feet while muttering puzzled groans.

It was dead for sure now.

Rather, I might've overdid it again.

Though I'd already reflected on this before, I did it again before I realized it.

Woops a-are you okay?

HIIIII

Even when I was asking about their safety, in the pair of sibling's eyes, I might be an even more terrifying existence than the troll.

The color drained from their faces as they trembled in fear.

I-I'm not scary, you kno~w?

Look, I'm your friendly undead, you kno~w?

I screamed This fu*cking situation wouldn't happen if only I could communicate properly!, and then had no choice but to leave that place.

And then, just when I was about to leave,

W-Wait a minute!

A call from him stopped me right at the last minute.

By then, I had already turned around and was about to run from this place.

T-Thank you for saving my little sister!

Huh, he could convey his gratitude properly despite his young age.

But let me say one thing, lad.

PLEASE SAY THAT FASTEEEEEEEEER!

It was really embarrassing when you seemed like stopping me right before I left, you know?!

Proper communication was so powerful.

TN : Finally! A chance of meeting, what waiting for Zion next?
