One was the continent map, and the other was a map showing the administrative areas of the capital Agata in the Kaladia Empire.
I sat at the head and cleared my throat, pondering.
“Today, we…”
I placed the horse-mounted flag with a blue pennant on the map.
“We’re going to occupy this place.”
The location marked by the flag was Duoe Street, the second administrative district of Agata, the capital.
Among them, they chose Duoe[Dash]1 district.
It was where the Kitten Duchy and Damon Duchy, two of the most prestigious noble families among the central nobility with power and wealth, were located.
“Now that the secret passage is destroyed, it’s a priority to gradually reclaim the areas adjacent to the Kitten Duchy.”
There was also a quest to go to Linestead, so I pondered whether to go there first, but…
As if the culprit was returning to the scene, I put it on hold due to the fear of encountering that heinous presence.
“Let’s start hunting zombies.”
It was when I was doing the sub-quest given by Zero, ‘Let’s give a blow to the zombies! 1’.
Ding.
[Sub-Quest[Dash]Give a Blow to the Zombies! 1] [Raise your stamina and go zombie hunting with your party members!] [Specify an area and reclaim that region.] [Reward: Acquire the ‘Grow Stamina and Strength’ skill.] [Currently in progress.] [Duoe[Dash]1 District Liberation (0/100%)]The paired pistols in the holster around my waist felt solid.
It was time to show the zombies their true colors.
…It had only been about 30 minutes since I came out as the Kitten Duchy like this.
Our team, composed of a small number of elite members, was hiding behind a wall, watching a zombie.
“Woo… Argh… Ah…”
Torn and covered in blood, it was difficult to recognize due to the dust and dirt, but the zombie was wearing a well-made black linen robe.
“Grooargh… Ah…”
A blond male zombie, wandering around as if hungry.
On the chest of that zombie was a golden brooch with the symbol of the royal lion.
“Hmm…”
Including me, there were a total of ten people who came to join me for zombie hunting.
Me, and party members Michael, Aston, Benedict, and Ruth.
In addition, Nigel, the Earl after Celeste.
And even the maid, Emily, and Rose, who were with me when we won our first victory against zombies.
The last member was Marion, a familiar mage who was desperately dispatched due to the relentless pestering by Ruth.
Marion didn’t want to be dispatched at all…
Due to the circumstances of the adults, the high-ranking wizards delayed and delayed it until finally, the order came down from the Marquis to “go and come back since you’ve already been there.”
〈I’m tied to this mansion twice…!〉
On the day Marion returned to the Duchy, Ruth smiled maliciously beside him as he wailed.
〈Okay. Now I can finally sleep soundly.〉
〈Yes…? What do you mean by that ominous statement…?〉
Facing the terrified Marion, Ruth chuckled.
〈If you stay here, absorbing magic day by day, you’ll know what I’m talking about.〉
From Ruth, who spoke with eyes like a vicious panda, emanated the scent of a tired office worker who had worked late into the night.
And Marion soon understood what Ruth’s words meant.
He followed along with my zombie hunting, walking silently.
“〈I’d rather kill zombies… There’s too much going on… I want to go back to the Marquisate. Sob.〉”
Although the sobbing figure seemed abnormal, well, in any case, the magician was a very valuable talent, so there was no intention of letting him go.
Anyway, we started moving from the Kitten Duchy’s magical barrier to the end of the Duoe[Dash]1 area…
“Groooargh…”
“Wait!”
Walking stealthily thanks to Ruth and Marion, we encountered that zombie.
“That… If my eyes aren’t wrong…”
“Wouldn’t that be Prince Louis’s message?”
“Nah… Really…”
The first to raise doubts was Nadia, and next was Nigel, the Earl after Celeste.
Lastly, Marion wondered if it could be true.
“…It seems likely.”
His eyes were entirely red like a rabbit’s, making it difficult to confirm his original color.
However, the brooch with the golden lion pattern, a definite proof of status that only the imperial family formally recognized, was an item that couldn’t be imitated.
“…That zombie is indeed Prince Louis. I can vouch for it.”
Aston, the unfortunate second prince who was expelled from the imperial family and now Whitehood Duke, firmly asserted.
“Prince Louis has a mole on his ear and neck. That zombie also has those physical characteristics intact.”
Even if Aston hadn’t proved it, I also had my own clue to recognize that this zombie was Prince Louis.
‘…The marks of the time when he turned into a zombie and was bitten by Sienna are still vivid…’
Ah, for crying out loud. Why did I have to meet this guy here?
Male lead is a Love-Obsessed Merman
When he discovers she has gone, he risks everything to pursue her on land, enduring agonizing pain to transform his tail into human legs…
One-line summary: Male lead chases female lead. The male lead’s love is a bit sick, an invincible love brain.
Synopsis
During a voyage at sea, Jiang Yang accidentally captures a merman.
Servant: I heard that mermen are fierce and brutal.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman obediently rubbing her palm like a puppy: “You call this fierce and brutal?”
Servant: I heard that mermen have no human nature.
Jiang Yang looks at the merman with wet puppy eyes, obsessively calling her ‘A Yang’ like a childish infant: “You call this having no human nature?”
With great difficulty, she releases the merman back into the sea and returns to shore.
Who would have thought that in less than half a month, the merman, who should have been freely wandering in the South China Sea, would shed his scales, endure the pain of losing his tail, transform into human legs, and come ashore to find her?
He kneels at her feet, rubbing her palm, with merman tears rolling down: “A Yang, don’t abandon me.”
