SPEAR MASTER AND THE BLACK CAT 5
Fifth Episode 〜 New Power and a Determined Heart
I was able to obtain the skills
“The inside of my body feels like its changing……”
My voice is excited, and it leaks out .
In this world skills seem to be acquired by one’s actions .
I pick up the torch I had thrown, and bring the flame closer to my own body, look at my feet and hands, touching my face .
Nothing has changed, they look the same .
It’s an ability that raises my speed limit .
I can intuitively understand the skill, I’ll try confirming it .
“Skill Status . ”
A semi-transparent skill appears before my eyes .
Skill Status .
Acquired Skills： Permanent Skills： Extra Skills：＜Language Comprehension＞：＜Crest of Light＞：＜Chain Factor＞：＜Cerebral Demon Spine Revolution＞ While playing with the status screen ※Cerebral Demon Spine Revolution※ →＜Cerebral Demon Speed＞ →？？？ ??? is the same as I touch ※＜Cerebral Demon Speed＞※ Certain conditions are required to activate . Constant noradrenaline and adrenaline secretion are required in the brain . Permanent brain and spinal nerve network grows and blood vessels continue to increase, explosive physical speed is obtained . After using the skill, physical speed is drastically increased for 20 seconds . Consecutive use is impossible, there is a 20 second time lag . An explanation was provided regarding the skill . So I close the translucent window . After all it seems to be a speed increasing skill . There’s a 20 second time lag . Even so, blood is clinging to my right hand . I try to shake it off blood but the blood clings stickily . “–Blood, speaking of blood……” I observed the blood coating my right hand as I mutter quietly . For me, this “blood” is necessary . “If I don’t consume blood, I’ll eventually mummify . ” Possibly, even if it’s monster blood, is it all right? I try licking the blood on my finger as a trial . “……Un . ” Except–it’s delicious . I quickly lick up my finger . The blood makes a good feast like this…… I feel that blood is supposed to be “tasty . ” That means, in the end, it probably effects my mind and thinking? Probably, it will be so . As I was able to replenish the blood, after the five days my ability will begin to fall, so it’s necessary for me to replenish to “blood” from monsters and even animals . Speaking of vampires, if I want to unlock the permanent skill I confirmed it before transmigration, and I check it again . I touched ※True Shinso Bloodline※ →？？？ The liberation condition of ※True Shinso Bloodline※, requires virgin blood . The power of the true vampire ancestor is released by drinking virgin’s blood . In doing so the two phases evolution of “Ultimate Magical Power” is completed on this occasion . A true ancestor suggests a founder with those words…… When transmigrating, it also mentioned the blood sucking god . Apart from that, a simple question passes through my head . Is only one drop of virgin blood enough? Does the person I drink from die? Does the person I drink from become underlings? Or else a little blood is extracted, even if blood is sucked I may be okay . And, it’s simple, but various question are floating through my mind . It’ll be understood if I suck blood, I think . Ma, first of all, get someone who is ready to die…… The first person you try to suck blood from “May die”…… So, the partner might die . “……Haha . ” I seize my face with my hand, and leaked a dry laughter . I’m half disgusted with the cruel thought I had . ……As I thought, my mind seems to be changing little by little . “Is it because I tasted blood?” I asked the dark cave . Of course, the dark cave does not answer . Tsu, at this late hour . It was me who chose it in the first place . Furrowing my brow, I open my eyes wide . First I clench my fist tight and put power into my arm, I strike the wall next to me with my fist . A dull sound echoes in the cave . A small stone falls from the light shock . My hand hurts…… There’s a trace of bright red blood on the wall where I struck my fist, cracks spread out from the area I hit . It’s an enormous power . The power of the vampire lineage . Though the current family is the Lucivault . But, there’s pain in my fist, and I’m bleeding . In order to experience the sense of pain . ……My first is sore and aches . However, the reality is that the wound on my fist is quickly healed . It all happens in front of my eyes, it’s genuine reality . There’s only me in the darkness, I stare ahead into the cave . I stretch my hand out in the darkness, again, I close my fingers into a fist like I’m taking hold of something . And, again, when I open my palm, I make a fist . If blood is necessary I’ll take it in . This isn’t the old me anymore . Even more I’ll “Become Stronger . ” In this dark place, in this unknown world, I do not change . What I imagined, was it considerably different? I will adapt to this dark underground world, not giving up…… “I’ll survive–” I don’t know whether it is the result of repeated thoughts, but I felt greatly refreshed . I grasp the torch, and advance into the depths of the dark cave . ◇◇◇◇ It showed up as 6:00 when I looked at my watch . There’s rocks and stones scattered in large quantities here . I pick it up . When I pick up the stone, I try to get the feel of it by throwing it using I try throwing while running, and extending the chain . However, the dark cave still spreads out further . The torch light, behind…… . I wonder how long it is? I walk while carrying such a worry . The cave gently slopes down . I noticed it being slanted . I go down the slanted slope . The light of the torch illuminates the area around me . Hoo, it’s man-made . Advancing along the slope, the design of the walls and floor of the cave changed . I want to see it more clearly . Bring the torch close to the wall, I stare . This is certainly made by an intellectual being . There are traces of chiseled portions and having dug . I go down the slope touching the wall which is changing every moment . I walk for a while, and the cave changed to a completely stone corridor . The ceiling and floor is composed of square stones, closely packed without a gap . The stone walls are similar to Japanese castles . Furthermore, the stone passage advances forward . Then, I discover that there’s a shelf carved on the right hand wall . A small and a finely worked artistic figure are on the shelf . It’s similar to the ancient Egypt of earth, Mesopotamia, stuff which harks back to Sumerian civilization . It’s surely is the trace of “some civilization . ” I pick up the small statue with my hand, and get a little excitement . When I was going to return the statue to the shelf, a light was seen in the back . “Oh . ” I leaked a sound . Do creatures live there? While ruminating such a question over in my head, I toss away the statue I picked up, and run there with the torch . There’s a small groove on the wall, torches are inserted into the grooves at fixed intervals . The torch light illuminates the corridor clearly . Gently sloping down, it feels like continuing down in a spiral . The torch I have seems to have burn out, and I throw it away . It’s bright here . I descend the revolving corridor rotating around in a spiral . But, this corridor……if it’s like an illusion like walking inside a snail’s cochlea then I’ll be walking for eternity . There’s no fatigue, but like this, walking round and round, I’m getting tired of it . Then it changed . The spiral stair case which seemed to continue endlessly, in order to comply with my wish, changed from a gentle slant to a steep slope . But, it changed too much . Before sliding……the steep slope changes going down . Because the uneven ground goes down more here and there it become like steps, so I go down using the steps . A few slide down like Ishizaka, I discovered an iron door on the inner side . An old rusted iron door . There’s a handle to open the iron door, but it seems to be locked and no matter how much power I use it doesn’t budge and inch . The door won’t open . “It can’t be helped . ” With words of acceptance, I give to iron door a kick with the bottom of my foot . The hollow iron became dented, and a hole the size of my foot appears . A large gush of sand flows out from there . As the sand flows the force increases . –Oh, dangerous . The force of the sand continues to increase . In the end the iron door is defeated by the pressure of the sand and bursts open . A great deal of sand flows out then, and a fast flowing stream of sand has been born . I’m submerged in the sand, I repetitively pierce the chain above, and somehow manage to keep my posture . But, I can’t go against the flow of the sand, it flowed down the spiral corridor so that I surfed down on my butt . On the way, I discover additional doors—yet the river of sand doesn’t stop . But, being the state where I’m being pushed by such a force, all of a sudden the spiral corridor came to an end . With a *don* I fell onto the hard ground with my butt . Itetetete . As for the place I was pushed from…there’s no slope, on the way it became appearance like a cut corridor . The exit makes a heavy thunk sound, it’s filled with a large amount of sand . It’s dangerous . (Or isn’t . ) I recovered my vigor at the thought of being buried alive . Therefore I look back behind . And, here– “Aah, it’s wide……” A large space spread out there . It’s ancient shrine-like remains . The ceiling on this side is low but rises as it goes deeper . If I went inside the structure would gradually spread out diagonally . Deeper in the shrine where the ceiling rises, I can see a lot of big stone pillars lined up in order to support the pressure from above . The resemble big Greek columns at the same level as the Parthenon . A red light illuminates the pillar . The light of a torch . ……Mm? A sound…… A sound like a bunch of footsteps comes from the right . I see a wall, but I hear footsteps coming from the other side of the wall . It’s it an echo? Judging from here, I suspect this place is the entrance of the shrine, now, I am at the position of the bottom of the round u-shape? From where I am, there’s a space ahead, and a wall goes on to the left and right . As I though, it’s U-shaped . For now, I look to the right side where I heard footsteps . Let’s move along the right wall…… I approach the wall at a jog . A relief was carved on the wall . Eeh, it’s amazing modeling . (TN: I wanted to say something better, but that’s how the author worded it . ) A person, with long elf ears, over flowing with fantasy world elements like the short figures of dwarfs with weapons, in the relief they fought against monsters and evil spirits . As most of it has faded away I don’t understand the details, but the color and shape barely remain . I walk alongside the wall while observing the relief . I arrive at the corner, and quietly face the way I heard the sound come from, I peek out and see what is on the other side . “……” Uwa, it’s them again . …I understood the true nature of the group making the sound . It’s the green monsters . Because what they’re wearing is different from the group I saw fighting the red monster, the green skinned monsters may be another monster . Well, it seems that group of monsters is inspecting this area on foot . Five of them . Nope, seven, eight of them . The group of green monsters went out of sight around the wall to the other sight . Facing near where I poured the sand into, is it the same figure? That many is dangerous . Let’s be careful in order to not be found . Because in the depths it’s a large space with the pillars lined up, I look around the left side . The complete picture of the ruins is square, from the underside I suspect the form is UU . By way of the upper part of the large space with pillars, first of all I want to grasp to terrain . There’s no doorways when I search . Now, the place where I am is the right wall of the U-shape . I look to the center from here . Ah, there’s a green monster in the middle . It stands like a sentry between the pillars . In this situation is it good to do a surprise attack? But, I don’t want the group of green monster to return and it not be there . Nevertheless, well, that green monster . It looks just like goblins commonly found in game and movies of the fantasy genre . “It’s small fry-ish……” Unless it’s strong? However, I’ll stop in the center . A little more, I want to see what is going on the left side . “I can’t see well from here–” I move my eyes to the back left edge . Since there are several large pillars, the view is restricted . It’s difficult to see from here, I want to understand the overall layout better . Let’s check whether the left is safe . Conscious of staying hiden–I detour to the left . Moving from pillar to pillar and looking around restlessly, I move using the shadow of the pillar . There’s no torch on the left hand pillar and it’s dim . This is convenient . There’s only the wall in the left hand corner of the ruins, there’s nothing there . As is I go to the upper right corner along the wall from the left corner . Walking along the wall, moving . A light is seen at one point on the wall . There seems to be a hollow . Here is the inside of the upper right portion of the ruins . Another one over there, it looks like there’s a doorway……along the wall, the red light is reflected in the shadow the center pillar, I lean in in order to hide for a moment . From here, I’m able to see there’s a doorway from this angle . Then, as expected . I discover another doorway in the place where it seemed to sink in . I feel like the group of goblins went away in the opposite direction . Two torches are burning on pedestals on either side of the door, and two goblins stood guard there . With this, I grasped the general location of the remaining goblins . I see now, two of them which stand to protect the open door remain in the upper part . Two more standing between the center pillars of the ruin where I looked a while ago . I can’t tell from here, but in the lower ruins I assume that a group of goblins are inside the right U-shape . First of all, I aim at the two guarding the door . Using the shadow of the pillar, again I approach . From the shadow of the pillar nearest to *gobu*, I look a little, and peeped out . It’s two goblins . They don’t wear helmets but wear leather armor . After all it’s the face of a goblin . It’s a square green face . Large eyes are sunken deep into the face . They have think green uni-brows but no hair . I stop observing the appearance of the monster that’s appearance I watched carefully . Named Gobutaro and Gobuemon . Gobutaro has a weapon like a short spear . Gobuemon has a thing like a club . Of course, they don’t notice me . I have a stone in both my hands . Two in total . Since there’s no stones in this area, I have to aim carefully…… I *goku* swallowed my saliva while taking aim and hiding . Focusing on the goblin closest to this side I aim for the head, I let the wrist snap do its work–and hurled it . The stone collides with the head–with a dull sound it’s crushed . The head of the goblin collapses on this side, and it fell to the ground . With the help of the Again, I immediately hurl it– I aim at the back of the other goblin’s head, but the stone veers of the mark, and hits the neck . Chii, missed! “Goobatsu!” The goblin hit in the neck emits a strange voice, and collapses as a result of the hit . The aim was off but did it work out in the end? “Hyuhhooo, it’s amazing, throwing . ” ※Pikon※ ※ A sound was heard in my head and I also saw I must have acquire the reclusive body hide skill because I attacked while hiding . Is such a thing learned immediately? Furthermore, this I intuitively understood the action for reclusive body for some time . It’s strange . However, words for “Skill” exist in reality, it’s displayed in front of me, How does it work? Is it engraved in my genetic blueprint? I understand it’s a natural phenomenon . Recognized in my brain and understood . With However, I remember before the transmigration . Different world, to the extent of being fantasy . For me who experiences reality, I understand the feeling of acquiring and learning a new skill is natural, however there’s a sense of incongruity…… –A strange feeling . It’s too strange, but I can only accept it . Nodding several times, I accept one . I try I start to stoop over similar like I’m squatting . When I use Earlier with I repeat the stealthy movements in the shadow of the pillar . My suspicious movements weren’t noticed by the goblin between the central pillars . So far so good I’m quietly sneaking up the place where the goblin corpse fell while rejoicing . The goblin that had its neck crushed is still breathing . But, when I see the face of the goblin, the breathing peters out and it stops moving . From the neck of the body, I collect the bloody stone, and put it in my pocket . I got a short spear as the reward from the victim . It has no money . The difference in the size of the leather armor is too much, I leave it as is . Because there is a dirty cloth tied around the waste with a string, I took it . I endure the faint smell of the cloth . Also, just to be safe, I have to hide this body . I move it to the shadow of a pillar in the left corner…… As I hid the body of the goblin in shadow of the pillar, I advance towards the inside of the door to the two goblins I killed were protecting . I entered and immediately there were stairs going down . I go down the stairs . There was a passage before the stairs went down . It leads to the lower right from the upper right corner . From the front and back . It’s the one in front . I choose the passage in front of me . I walked carefully next to the right hand wall . While bending down and using –I look ahead from the corner . There’s no one there . There’s only a similar passage, there seems to be no presence . I turn at the corner, and advance along the small passage . Then, I discovered a door on the left . I can advance ahead, first, I decide to examine the door here . I grasp the old red iron handle and break it . It’s an old room . There’s a strange circular silver container on the slant, a faint white light leaking from inside . It’s probably the source of light . A magic light . I search the room using its light . There are clouded spider’s webs throughout . The smell of mold is present as well . There’s a stone chair and desk, and a bookshelf further in . Somehow or other, this place seems to be an ancient library . The books on the book shelf have rotted away and gathered dust, so I’m able to figure this room was used a considerably long time ago . The bookshelf is made of some kind of building stone and extends lengthwise deeper into the room . The bookshelf made of stone was built firmly . I grasp the short spear, and look to the interior of the bookshelfs . I confirm no one is there . There’s no one there . I return to the place close to the entrance and sit down, deciding to take a little break . I bite the fruit like peach I got a little while ago . –It’s delicious . It tastes like a mango and pear were put together . Chewing *munch munch*, I eat . Which reminds me, I haven’t eaten anything yet…… When I look at the clock, it shows 11:00 . Today, for the whole day, I walked and ran in the cave . I, even then, experienced no fatigue . Did my appetite decrease somewhat? After all, the stamina doesn’t seem to be ordinary . I’m free so I’d like something to read, I looked for a book . On the bookshelf, “Life of the Arotoshu Tree”, “Sword of the Weiss”, “Baptism of Orimiru”, “Ashura Calendar”, and, I found many readable books with the title written on the cover, I stretched out a finger to the book . –But, the moment my finger touched the book, the book quickly crumbled to dust . It’s rotted away . Although the words stayed readable, it was in vain . There’s no helping it . I give up and go further along the book shelf . I decide to take a rest in the corner . With my back at the corner of the wall, I close my eyes, and motionlessly for a while, I calmed myself . Naturally closing my eyes, I fall asleep . ◇◇◇◇ “–Tsu . ” While exhaling, I woke up . When I check my watch it’s 3:00 in the morning . Fortunately, the green monsters resembling goblins don’t seem to have come to this room . Moving, there’s no helping it even if I’m here . I have to escape from this ruins-like place . I grasped the short spear and left the ancient library . Again, I open an old iron door . I returned to the small passage . For the time being, I choose to go left . Right is the way I came from . The passage became wider as I advance . Suddenly I come upon a crossroads . There’s passages going left right and forwards . I choose to go strait, and advance . Then, again the passage becomes small . When I pass through the small passage, I came into a big bright hall . A huge red curtain is raised up coming from the walls . Oh, an emblem? The emblem is made of three intersected bars with an ax in the middle . –Huh? Uhyu, there was a group of goblins further in the hall . Moreover, their figures were *chichikuri* embracing each other . “Ugee, oh what?” I unintentional speak after seeing the unpleasant figures of the goblins . Tsu, shi, oops . “Giyago! Nu?” “Getsu . ” “Gotsu!?” “Ningenda!” “Why, Human gaa!””Gorose!” “Eh……tsu . ” My eyes swim quickly as I take in the hall . There was a passage to the left and right, in an instant I choose the left passage and use I activate the skill . –And escape . I run . Run . “Gunuootsu . ” “Get him!” “Oe!” Goblin voices . I think there were nearly ten of them? I can’t look back . I run through the passage . Around the corner is a door with what appear to be strange old markings on it . There’s no time to open it . I hurl my shoulder at it–and break down the door . I rush into the room while rolling . There’s a shock to my shoulder, but it’s not painful . The A cloud of dust rises up . “Cough, cough . ” Grit whirls up into my mouth, and gives me a coughing fit . While twisting my face I check the surroundings . Excepting the low round column in the middle of the room– “It’s just, a wall . ” The room I knocked the door of down and invaded, was a circular room with mysterious symbols carved along the walls . The pattern is countless thin lines like the veins of a leaf . The sealed space was surrounded with a strange atmosphere . If I need it, this is a dead end . The effect of “Itazooo . ” “This human, fast . ” “I found him, here-su . ” Meanwhile, the goblins that ran after me came into the circular room . I’m trapped . Only three of them……can I kill them? Short spear in hand, a stone in my pocket . Surrounded, dangerous…… The time lag for There’s the The goblin smiles, comes approaching me…… I withdrew backing up . My back leg hits the central pillar of the room . “Long time-ro, Human . ” “Demon, guuu . ” Reinforcement Goblins enter the room one after the other . I put my foot up the central column, the moment my weight moved to the pillar–the ground shakes? –Eh? –The ground is shaking!? No, falling–Rururuuuu– I immediately eject The earsplitting sound of howling wind . Time, it’s already too late…… . I fall head over heel…… Uheeeeeee, I say such a thing . I fall, falling . The goblins seem to fall, too . Serves you right, I cannot say . Well that room . The whole room seems to have been a hexagonal pitfall trap . –Shit, I extend the chain to the side–but there’s no wall . Easily, it proves right without minding it, I produced the chain . The chain penetrates through several goblins in the midst of falling, but it was just that . The wind blows up vigorously, I feel like my body is falling like an arrow . I’m skydiving with no parachute . An unpleasant thought crosses my mind . This, if I arrive below, will my body be destroyed? Eeeeh, I don’t want that Chain, chain, chain, chain, chain, chain, chain, chain, chain, chain, chain, chain, chain . I repeatedly eject My body is of Vampire lineage . I don’t think I’ll die even if it’s crushed, but… it will hurt first . It’s for so long I’m able to think to that extent, I still admire it while in the middle of falling . Suddenly–with a *bua*, the sensation of piercing something . I felt the sense of the air clogging up my ears . Did the atmospheric pressure even change? This, how far will I fall…… I up the repeated ejection of Many times, many times, many times, A whole bunch of chain–did it get stuck!? The chain bends and doesn’t break off, carrying me to the wall in one go . Feeling to chain for how many second, I rejoice, but, the though ends there, it broke . –I crash into to wall with awful force . The sound of the impact as my head is smashed, my brain shakes . –The side of the wall collapsed . Blood seeps into the cracks on the wall, it collapses . Half of my left shoulder is torn off, instantly adhering, repeatedly tearing–the broken ribs are healed, the bones protruding from my chest also . I reel at such extraordinary pain and shock several times, I completely black out . The Completely exhausted, blood sprays out from everywhere on my body . I do a nose dive in one breath . Dooooon, dogoootsuntsu! A dull crash resounds and echoes . Pieces of bone are scattered . From the shock of the impact at the bottom, my consciousness is restored, but, I was attacked by an undetermined fierce pain in my body . As if I promote such pain, I rolled down bone mountain . The long pit I fell from fortunately led to this “Skeleton Mountain . ” The many bones became a cushion, I fell on the heap of skeletons and while it absorbed the impact my body rolls I finish rolling when I arrive at the bottom of bone mountain . A twitch, my body doesn’t move . I arrived…… I feel relieved, then, again I fainted . After a while, how much time passed– At last, I wake up . “Itetete . My entire body hurts . ” Haha, there’s too much pain . On my chest and thigh, splintered bones stick out here and there . From a laying down posture, I pull out bone fragments I don’t think are mine, and a sharp pain runs through my body . Bururi, my whole body shook, and muscles relaxed . “Guaa, sigh……ite . ” While biting my lip to suppress the pain, I look at the wound I remove the bone shard from . Blood overflows from the wound, but the wound closes up in an instant . I’m stunned at the recovery abilities of the vampire lineage . “Su, amazing……” Well, is it all right? I…… The pain is now a more common pain . Yes I’ll be paralyzed while I recover like this . But even if I say paralyzed, I fainted from the extreme pain earlier . Immortal, but the sense of pain is normal . By the way, other than such a thing, where am I? I stand up unsteadily, and look at the bone mountain before me– Like the remains of a battlefield and a landfill . It’s probably the bones of humans and monster accumulated in large numbers . Just above, a huge pit opens . This, is it the hole I fell from? I look into the hole . Pitch-darkness . Well, by crashing from such a height, okay, well, I was saved . A normal human would have had their left arm torn off first, having both the chest and head destroyed would have been “Instant Death . ” Speaking of pitch-darkness, it’s bright here . The sources of light emit bright light, I turn to face it . –There seems to be light everywhere . Is there a large cauldron hanging from the ceiling by chains? A strange orange flame burns in the pot . “It’s totally the pit of hell……” I look around the area but there’s only bones . There are scattered old spears, swords, and armor among the bones too . “Is anything here usable?” I lost the spear I picked up a while ago . Then, while cautiously stepping on the bones on the ground, there might be a weapon that seems usable or an armor that could be worn, the search begins . The huge bone mountain before my eyes, there seem to be many of them, but because the bone mountain seems unstable I detour around it . “Ooh, does the size match?” Then I discover a cuirass that seems usable . It covers everything above my thighs . I attach the cuirass with green scales and red from my bloodied jeans . The jeans are bloodied and tattered full of holes, but because this fits, I decide it’s good . It just fits . Searching for other armor, moving bones aside, I move forward . (TN: Not really sure . ) I pick up a rusted brown sword this time . Using the sword, I pushed a bone aside and looked . I’m able to find armor equipment, but the only things I can find are broken things that were crushed and full of holes . However, I found a good looking gauntlet that seemed to fit . It’s only the right hand, but the grey armor seemed to have some green scales mixed in with a darkish firm metal on the back . It seems to be old, but it’s better than nothing at all . I stretch the clothe out into a string and attach it to the claps on the back of the cuirass to bind it together . I fitted it to my wrist . I check my watch then . The watch was broken . The face is badly cracked and the needle is bent, it has completely stopped . Aaaaahhh, the precious light, the power of civilization…… –I should throw it away . I throw my watch away into the bone mountain . –The legacy of civilization, taken away! I continue going around bone mountain . As usual, the bone are piled up in large quantities on the ground . It was hard to walk . Jumping ahead from the middle to walk, already playing, I decide to move . There it is, at last! As my jumping power also rose considerably, I was able to jump considerably far . But, the scene continues to not change at all . This bone place is a huge cave, it’s nothing but an ocean of bones . Where ever I look, the horizon is covered by the sea of bones . Luckily, it’s bright so I can advance easily…… Intently, running across the sea of bones, walking, jumping, I continue . One or two days have probably already passed . I’m thirsty . I want water . But, in here it doesn’t seem likely to find food or water . Also, there are bone mountain . On top of it, there’s also a huge pit . There seems to be a bone mountain under the huge pit like the once I fell through . If I can get high, I may be able to understand the layout of this place…… “Let’s try it . ” Muttering so, I look up the bone mountain in front of me . Yoshi, let’s do it in one go . I put strength into my legs and run . At first I was able to climb with a good feeling . But, my feet are immediately caught by the sea of bones even if I jump, I’m then buried and swallowed up by a whirlpool of bones . My feet rapidly sank into the bone mountain as it collapsed and my body spilled down . Since there’s no helping it, I advance along the side of the bone mountain . Small bones, are crushed underfoot while I walk . The sword I take hold of in my hand is substituted for a walking stick . In such a way, I pass several bone mountains . Another bone mountain……is what I though then . Slowly, zoazoa, and, it is a group of moving people? But I saw it . I approached . Hm? Huh, oh, it’s a group of corpses . Zombies . The living dead are moving corpses . There’s skeletons made of only bones too . I took care to slowly walk around the group of corpses . Part of the group, noticed me . The decomposed zombie corpses all moaned, and came this way . Uhyu, don’t come here! I turn my left left wrist towards a zombie, and extend –The aim is the head . The chain makes a swish sound as it advances, piercing through the head of the zombie . The zombie who lost its head collapsed weakly to the ground . –I did it . I was terribly idle in my previous life . I remember that I loved drama, movies and games were zombies came out . While remembering the scene I enjoyed in my previous life, I ejected and reeled in the chain, slaughtering the slow zombies . But, if they were the serious heinous running zombies, I don’t think I would have such a composed attitude . With a rusted sword equipped in my right hand and the chain in the left, I stick the sword into the head of a zombie, killing it . As I don’t know how to use a sword, I just use it by stabbing with the sharp end . The zombies stop moving if I smash their head, it also works on the skeletons even if they’re only made of bones . Yet, in addition to being slow, shaking and clattering, I was able to kill them by destroying the bleached skeletons with my chain . When I finish killing several zombies and skeletons, is the source of the zombies the white fog surrounding the bone mountain? That sort of thing can be confirmed by sight . Oi, a ghost? That’s probably what it is, I approach and observe the white fog…… If I think it’s shaped like a person, it’s a ladybug? It shines . Is it a group of shining lady bugs? Why? Shining with a white light, the group of ladybugs float like fireflies . “Why here?” When I’m going to touch with my hand, the ladybugs swiftly moved nose diving in a fine zig-zag . Curiously, I tried feeling around on the ground . “Otsu . ” On the ground there was a blurred hard to read character written on the ground . Re, Te, Ta, Wa, Me, Su, Mu . Different world characters . They can be read, but several placed have been worn down . White light shines under the characters, there was a necklace decorated with big beautiful ladybugs . The ladybugs are beautiful crafted like a work of art . A chain of gold is on the end of the decoration . On the backside of the ladybug, there seem to be several lines of grooves like an ordinary necklace . However, the light just now? The fog? Sort of…… 『……』 “Mm?” When I hold it in my hand, a faint wind blows . The ladybug pendant shined white for an instant . “Being an insect, foreboding? For the time being, let’s take it……” Muttering so, I hang the necklace around my neck . The necklace stops shining then . Leaving that place, again, I begin to advice along the side of bone mountain . I walk determined . The sea of bones spread out like an infinite hell . Haa, how long will it take? My sense of time is already completely out of order . Only the sound of bones crunching echoes .
