At the mention of the existence of the culprit behind the zombie incident, the faces of the local lords stiffened like wax dolls in an instant.
……Could this, by any chance, be the work of the rebels trying to overthrow the empire?
“Yes.”
Duchess Kitten asserts that… she must have experienced sufficient evidence to make such a claim.
“Yes. Not only me, but Michael, and the sorceress, Miss Ruth, can also testify.”
At my words, Michael and Ruth nodded.
Along with them, Benedict and Aston also described in detail the scene they witnessed while escaping through the secret passage.
The tense situation at the time of the escape, the strange behavior of the zombies at that moment.
And even the moment when Viscount Wray, who had been abandoned in the Rinstead territory, was instantly killed by someone.
As the party members’ explanations grew longer, the local lords’ expressions turned contemplative.
After destroying the imperial family, you say they silently wiped out the Wray Viscount family as well?
Such unbelievable events…
The situation is much more serious than we thought.
Now I understand the words of Duchess Kitten, that there is no safe place to escape to. To think there is a terrorist with an unimaginable power…
The local lords revealed fear about the unknown culprit who had shattered the peace in an instant.
During the days of prolonged peace with no wars, people had become lax against violence.
In such a situation, the appearance of a terrorist revealing a terrifying power and malice was close to being horrifying.
‘So, I need to complete the quest Zero gave as soon as possible.’
Through the gathered information like picking up bread crumbs, we could only speculate that the culprit might be a sorcerer.
As if reading my anxious thoughts, Zero whispered.
“The quest is 90% complete. Just a little more! Cheer up!”
Ding.
Even though the quest was not yet completed, thanks to Zero’s consideration, a light blue quest notification window appeared.
[Sub Quest Give a Hit to the Zombies! 2] [Current Quest Progress: 90%] [Just one more step until quest completion!]Looking at the quest progress window that no one else could see, I raised the corners of my mouth.
This time, a natural smile, not forced, flowed.
“Now then, everyone. Do you feel like cooperating with me now?”
I extended a hand toward the local lords as if shaking hands.
‘If you want to live, take my hand.’
Although I had taken on the role of a savior unintentionally, I would do my best for this world until I could return to my own.
At that, the local lords almost unanimously responded to me.
Of course.
Duchess Kitten, we promise our support.
Thank you for providing valuable information and convincing us.
I almost ended up like a frog in a well, clueless about the situation and nearly dying… I apologize for my arrogance. I will do my best to send resources and troops to help you win the fight against the zombies.
A definite positive response.
‘I did it!’
With an exhilarating feeling, the quest window proudly displayed a deeper shade of blue in the air.
Ding.
[Congratulations!] [Sub Quest Give a Hit to the Zombies! 2 Completed] [Claim your reward.] [Reward: Obtained the discontinued book ] [May a brilliant glory shine on your future.]‘A somewhat awkward blessing message.’
Looking at Zero, this hamster avoided eye contact and awkwardly whistled.
“Well, well.”
‘You did this, right?’
“No way! The system inputted it on its own, you know? I didn’t do anything!’
This kid, he’s saying anything to avoid embarrassment.
Smirking, I said, ‘Hey, Zero. Make sure to sneak the reward item into the inventory so that it doesn’t look weird to people.’
“Hmph! I’m not so foolish as to not even grab something like that! It’s a temporary measure, but consider it a favor! I won’t see you as a god!”
Although he offered warm words through the quest window, Zero pouted when I responded sarcastically.
Yet, he diligently placed the rewarded book into my inventory as I requested.
‘Oh, that tsundere-like hamster.’
Satisfied, I checked the new item.
[New item added to inventory!] [Book: Everything About Curses] [Grade: ???] [Description: One of the golden books burned by Anais, the first saint and the first pope. Titled ‘Everything About Curses,’ it actually contains information about higher concepts related to magic.It is a book that was already lost in this world or was restored with the permission of the divine. Thanks to the power of the gods, it seems like a new creation.] [Effect: X]
Since it covered everything about curses, I thought Sherina Jacqueline would appreciate it.
‘I hope we can secure more clues about the culprit with this…’
I wondered what would happen.
With both anticipation and tension, I smiled warmly at Zero.
‘Thank you, Zero. I’ll do my best.’
I need to get rid of the zombies quickly. I must survive, no matter what.
As I brimmed with determination, Zero also seemed pleased.
My Ex-Girlfriend Is The Regent In The Female-dominant World (Male lead transmigrates to the matriarchal world)
Two years ago, Gu Sui picked up a homeless woman in ancient costume from the street.
Apart from occasionally claiming to be a princess from a female-dominant country due to illness, her figure, appearance, intelligence, and martial arts skills were impeccable.
Naturally evolving from roommates to girlfriends, as time went on, Gu Sui found it increasingly difficult to tolerate her queen syndrome.
“Mu Jiulu, can you stop controlling me inside and out? Let’s break up.”
Gu Sui made a breakup call, and since then, he couldn’t find any trace of her.
A year later, Gu Sui, who was planning to move, woke up the next day and found himself in a different place.
“Young Master, today is the day you choose your Wife-master through martial arts competition at Jade Dew Pavilion. Please get up quickly.”
Gu Sui: Who am I? Where am I? What am I doing?
As the only son of a general’s mansion in a female-dominant dynasty, the young empress personally issued a decree allowing Gu Sui to select his Wife-master through martial arts competition. Whoever could defeat him could marry him.
Gu Sui: “……”
He didn’t inherit the original owner’s martial prowess, so anyone could defeat him! And what the hell is a Wife-master?
Forced to come to Jade Dew Pavilion, the densely packed women below made Gu Sui’s agoraphobia act up, and his face was full of resistance.
Until he saw the Regent sitting on the second floor, with a smile on the corner of her lips, her eyes wicked and nonchalant.
Hmm… she looked a little familiar.
It turned out that the Regent also found him a little familiar.
Mu Jiulu fiddled with her bone clasp, her deep gaze locked on the man who was out of place in this world.
“Finally, I found you.”
