Bang, bang, bang.

“Wow, crazy.”

Finally, the zombies succeeded in cracking the sturdy wall. Fearing the wall would crumble like a broken snack, I hurriedly pulled out a secret weapon from my pocket dimension.

“……? Duke Keaton, what’s that?”

“Ah, this is a water gun and sprayer containing holy water.”

I had wondered when I’d get to use it, but finally, the opportunity came.

I had kept it stored away thanks to Luce’s magic, but in this situation where zombies are about to wreak havoc, it was appropriate.

Then Zero, too, ran over with his short legs and said,

“Um, the search engine connection is impossible!”

“What?”

“Just like before, an error came up. I can’t find out why these zombies are acting like this…”

“Then, can I use the Sage’s Eye that was given as a sub-quest reward?”

When I asked calmly, Zero blinked his black, bean-like eyes.

“Sage’s Eye…? That’s a passive skill you can use even when the system is down. Of course, you can use it!”

“Okay, then it’s fine.”

“Wha, what are you going to do?”

“I have a plan. Oh, there’s someone next to me, so can I shout the skill name in my mind?”

“Of course!”

I didn’t hesitate and used the skill.

‘Sage’s Eye!’

“Tell me about the small mana bomb!”

[Searching for information on the small mana bomb.] [Loading…….] [Information on small mana bomb retrieved.] [Item: Small Mana Bomb] [Origin: Matop] [Type: Custom-Made C-Type / Discontinued] [Power: Enough to blow a zombie’s head off] [Special note: An upgraded C-Type version with additional options not found in commonly distributed mana bombs. It has a waterproof magical effect, so it works perfectly even when wet. When detonated together, it can have a similar effect to an A-Type large mana bomb.

Due to the additional cost of waterproofing, it exceeded the budget and was discontinued.]

‘This is it!’

The reason I searched for the small mana bomb’s effects in this urgent situation was this.

It won’t get wet.
At least it would still function, spewing fire, even if it got wet.

Because from now on, we’re using water guns and sprayers filled with holy water!

“Mihail, Rus! Take out your water guns and sprayers!”

The jewelry store inside this building, ‘Angel’s Breath,’ was as spacious and grand as you’d expect from a property owned by the affluent Duchess Keaton.

‘I can’t do it alone!’

To safely escape and to perfectly trap the zombies, Mihail and Rus’ pre-prepared water guns and sprayers were also needed.

“Understood.”

“What should we do with this?”

In response to Mihail and Rus’ question, I loaded my water gun and answered.

“Floor, ceiling, walls! Don’t avoid the places where we set up bombs, spray it everywhere! So that the holy water in the canister is evenly distributed!”

“But if we do that, there’s a chance the bombs won’t go off properly…”

I confidently refuted Mihail’s concern.

“This mini magical bomb is the waterproof C-type!”

“!”

“So stop worrying that the bombs won’t go off and just spray! Spray it around like you’re sprinkling salt!”

“Understood!”

Mihail and Rus immediately sprayed the water guns and sprayers I had prepared all over the jewelry store.

Alcohol evaporates almost immediately after being sprayed, but holy water did not.

Unless used for blessings or to repel something evil, the holy water would stay in its place for years or even millennia.

‘Wow. When Zero was forced into the job of a saint, I was cursing like crazy.’

As a situation of coming into close contact with zombies arose, a status window automatically appeared in front of me.

This was Zero’s doing.

「Host! This could help too! It’s a mode that can only be activated in emergencies. Use even a part of the power you’d have as an awakened saint!」

‘Could you please say that sooner!’

If it could help, of course, I should use it!

[Activating emergency auto-manual.] [Confirming host ID NO.00000234232.] [Proceeding with the download.] [Downloading probationary manager_Saint package_zip…] [Download complete.] [You will temporarily inherit the knowledge an awakened saint would have for about 10 minutes.] [Do you allow access?] [YES / NO]

‘Obviously yes.’

Then, a vast amount of knowledge that a saint would have flooded into my mind.

“Ugh…!”

For a moment, the overwhelming amount of information almost made my head explode, but biting my lips, I was able to pick out the information I needed for the current situation.

‘Holy water has to directly touch the zombies’ skin to paralyze them and show its efficacy.’

I used up all the holy water in the water gun I had brought and then entered the secret passage.

“Mihail, Rus! If you’re done spraying the holy water, hurry over here!”
