Not only the party members but also Sheri and Cloud, registered as collaborators, and Jacqueline and Nadia have become busy.
[Sub-Quest [Dash] Let’s give a shot to the zombies! 2] [1) Inform the Imperial Empire in every nook and cranny that the capital Agatha is in crisis!] [2) Let’s bring in brave reinforcements to fight against zombies in the capital!] [Condition: Obtaining the help of collaborators is essential for this quest.] [Reward: Acquire the banned book ‘Everything About Curses’]The quest Zero newly gave me had content that could be a win-win for both the collaborator and me. I decided to ask for help from Sheri, Cloud, Jacqueline, excluding Nadia among the collaborators.
‘I can leave the investigation of materials related to the zombie situation to them without worry, and they don’t have to live like wanderers, which is good.’
If Michael, Aston, Ruth, and Benedict were the attackers, they were suitable for the role of supporters providing assistance from the rear.
Even though they might not have the direct ability to eliminate zombies, there was no willingness to reject those who wanted to help by providing information and strategies.
So, during the training-free time, I gathered the collaborators.
With Zero, my assistant, by my side.
“Hmm! Elizabeth has probably already revealed it, but let me formally introduce myself. I am Zero. It’s not my real name, and I let Lizzie, whom I chose as the saint, attach it as she pleased.”
‘You also call me Lizzie as you please.’
Elizabeth’s name was long, and perhaps to distinguish it from the real ‘Elizabeth,’ from around this time, Zero casually called me Lizzie for convenience.
I didn’t have the leisure to nitpick about trivial things, so I just let it slide.
I displayed the quest that Zero gave me on the blue status screen and showed it to Sheri, Jacqueline, Cloud, and Nadia.
“Wow!”
“Wow, this must be the power of the gods.”
“To be honest, when I was told I was chosen as the saint, I was a bit skeptical….”
Nadia said that in the middle. When I lightly pinched her ear, she shut her mouth soon after.
Jacqueline showed the most enthusiastic response to the status screen.
“Doing missions like this, getting rewards after completion! It’s like being a mercenary. You get paid and gradually grow while completing tasks.”
“Well… yes.”
Strictly speaking, on Zero’s side, it was a subcontract given to me, who was entangled in the error of the gods of this world.
‘Come to think of it, just winning the lottery won’t be enough….’
I had to receive additional labor fees. Of course, it was not at all because I claimed this due to the horrific physical training I received morning and night.
Anyway, coming back to the point. Without mentioning the fact that I am a possessed individual regarding the status screen, let’s add some embellishments and explain the situation. Sheri liked it, sparkling her blue eyes.
“An assistant supporting a chosen apostle by the gods. Could there be such a spectacular event in my life? I’m so excited!”
Damon Duchess, with a splendid appearance and appropriate eloquence, Sherry, who always had many people around her due to her status, strongly opposed this matter.
“Whether it’s about magic or any phenomena similar to the zombie situation, can you find and report it to me by writing a report?”
“Of course! It’s fortunate even though I was already bored. I can also be helpful to the Duchess!”
Sherry wanted to be of assistance to me, not just being indebted.
On the contrary, Cloud Damon, her aura-being, expressed dissatisfaction.
“But Sherry, this means we agree to work. It’s not the duty of the nobility. Although I came out of Damon Duchy, we are still the lady and son of the Damon family, and we don’t have to meet such demands.”
‘Hmm… Is this the case where you save a drowning person and they ask you to carry their baggage?’
Cloud was just knighted, and his divine power was relatively low. He didn’t have any of the other five powers, and his basic abilities weren’t that great.
All of this was the result of looking into it through Zero and my skill, ‘Sage’s Eyes.’
‘…In terms of stats, Nadia Lutri is actually better than Cloud.’
Nadia had talent as a martial artist. I decided to leave Nadia to Michael and Aston, thinking that with a little training, she could go out to the scene and deal with zombies.
〈Ah! I don’t like it! Even at my family’s residence, Countess Lutri, they told me not to learn martial arts!〉
When I first asked Nadia if she wanted to learn martial arts and go out as a martial artist to fight zombies, she lay down on the floor and threw a tantrum.
〈Nadia Lutri. Although she sought the path of a modest lady in rebellion against a martial arts-crazy family, that too was ruined by Elizabeth Kitten.〉
‘…That would have happened even if Elizabeth hadn’t used Nadia.’
When scheming men desperately battle for her favor in the male harem
This one’s also on my reread list! The rivalry, scheming between the men in the imperial harem are just as intense and thrilling as in classic palace drama novels, where concubines fight to the death. Give it a read, girls! I promise you won’t be disappointed.
Synopsis:
“I am not worthy of her… but I still want to be by her side, even if only as a loyal dog…”
Those were the painful whispers of Yue Guanyi – the proud Crown Prince of the Great Qi, who was torn between deep love and a guilty conscience. Despite holding the supreme power of the Imperial Guard, he still could not forget the dark past when he was sold into a brothel.
Fate played a cruel twist when Qiu Shuzhi – a young female official who had just passed the imperial examinations with top honors – stepped into his life. She did not know that she was the one who had saved him from a tragic fate many years ago. And now, her heart was the target of pursuit for both Yue Guanyi and the powerful Empress Dowager Qin Qing.
While Yue Guanyi only dared to silently care for and protect the one he loved from afar, the Empress Dowager Qin Qing openly expressed his feelings and did not hesitate to take advantage of his power to approach Qiu Shuzhi. The covert struggle between the two most powerful forces in the imperial court began…
