Due to Ruth’s widespread attack magic, the sound of zombies’ eyeballs bursting was heard from all directions.
“Kieeeeeeek!”
“Geeeaaah!”
“Giieeeeeeek!”
The zombies screamed with rough and fresh sounds, truly resembling a chaotic symphony of death. Thick, expired ketchup-like blood splattered everywhere, creating a nauseating sensation.
“…It’s horrifying.”
“That’s for sure.”
Mihael and Benedict stared blankly at the hellish scene. It felt unreal.
The movement of the gigantic mass of zombies, forcibly stitched together like a jumble of burning zombies, finally came to a halt. Seeing their squirming appearance, it seemed hopeless for them to further devastate the city within the impenetrable darkness.
Seizing the opportunity provided by the stopped wall of grotesque zombies, the users who had been hiding in the adjacent building quickly crossed over. Concerns were raised about the artifact’s usage time, and at this moment, staying united rather than separating seemed advantageous.
The chambermaid, Emily, asked me with fearful eyes as she glanced outside.
“Is it resolved like this?”
Emily was trembling, tightly holding hands with my friend, Rose. The zombies, who were expected to be easily dealt with by just cutting off their heads, had merged, causing a significant mental shock.
Although I wanted to tell a hopeful story in times like this, unfortunately, the reality here always showed a new abyss, making it impossible.
“No. Not at all. That was just a makeshift solution. We can’t be relieved just because we got rid of their eyes. The zombies excel in hearing and smelling, as they don’t feel pain even when their eyes are removed.”
‘Even if Sienna provided information about the Punishment Squad, she probably couldn’t bypass our scents.’
Fortunately, that seemed to be the case. Sienna likely transmitted the appearance information of us directly observed by her, allowing the zombies to determine our location.
However, the unfortunate but fortunate thing was that, as a result of this incident, the zombies’ eyes were destroyed, so the mastermind hiding behind them could no longer track our movements.
‘The only annoying assumption here… If the zombie that was watching and tracking us had become accustomed to our smell, we might be exposed as soon as he regains his senses.’
In that brief moment when the mobile force field was maintained, while the magic stone powering it was depleted…
If, during that time, he had figured out our location and was rushing to attack…
Just thinking about it was thrilling. The experience of becoming human jerky while still alive. Absolutely unacceptable.
The servants, who witnessed the massive zombie wall just a moment ago, were frightened.
“Well, um…?”
“What should we do, my lord?”
The servant girls trembled, their feet trembling, seeing the gigantic wall of zombies from before.
They thought that zombies, who didn’t even know how to cooperate, would not use numerical superiority to attack us.
The cries of the zombies writhing within the Sarkaman’s field of view gradually lessened. The more it happened, the more those among the group I brought, excluding the party members, trembled in fear.
“Wait a moment. Even if the sky is falling, there must be a hole to escape through. There’s undoubtedly a way out of here.”
The words I spoke to calm the group were also for my own sake.
‘Damn… What should we do here?’
Even if we were to run away from the current store blindly, it would be difficult to move our bodies, blocked by the massive wall of zombies. Moreover, if we moved through narrow gaps and were caught by them, our identities would be exposed in an instant.
Now that the zombies couldn’t see ahead, they would surely move in all directions, chasing us even more vigorously.
Even if we couldn’t see and couldn’t feel their presence, if they pressed us like hunting mice, we could end up caught and killed. How far could humans run?
‘Zero, don’t you have any abilities that could be useful in this situation?’
I asked silently, as it was a topic others shouldn’t hear.
But even if I grabbed Zero, my employer and provider of skills, and pleaded, it was useless.
「Hey… I’m an NPC that can give you skills or items after completing quests. This is a directive from the Bureau of Possession. If I violate this, I’ll lose my qualifications as an apprentice, and I’ll have to accumulate the purity of my soul in purgatory for at least 100 years again.」
‘It’s not allowed.’
Muttering silently, Zero shrank as if he felt sorry.
「What can I do about the guidelines from the higher-ups in the divine realm? I’d like to promise you some radical support, just like to the dedicated possessors, but… If I use a chance beyond the allowance, it would damage the legitimacy of a new ending. What should I do? Sob.」
‘I got it, I got it.’
That damn chance!
The gods seated in the high places of the divine realm were truly demanding beings. Even if you go to Moro, you just have to go to Seoul.
Male lead is a clingy little husband
One-line summary: The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
Introduction:
One day, Lu Yuner’s soul transmigrates into a female-dominant world. She enters the Imperial Academy and takes up the position of a doctoral instructor, teaching classes and grading schoolwork.
One day, she encounters the young prince Su Qingwan secretly skipping class from the male academy.
As a result, Su Qingwan is punished.
From then on, Su Qingwan sees Lu Yuner as a “thorn in his side”.
But before long, this “thorn” becomes the person he cherishes most, and he goes to great lengths to win Lu Yuner’s affection.
Mini scene 1:
One day, the sun is high in the sky but Su Qingwan still hasn’t gotten up for class.
Servant Xiaoyuan: “Young prince, it’s time for class. You’ll be late otherwise.”
Su Qingwan says arrogantly: “I’m not going. I am the esteemed prince, my status is so noble, why should I suffer this hardship? Besides, isn’t learning all this just to please women? Hmph, they’re not worthy!”
Mini scene 2:
After Su Qingwan falls for someone, he completely changes. He no longer skips class and diligently learns how to be a good husband and father. But he discovers that Sister Yuner is always surrounded by admirers.
Drunk and overcome with jealousy one day, he clings to Lu Yuner, crying beautifully like a pear blossom in the rain.
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan likes Sister Yuner.”
Lu Yuner: “Young prince, you’re drunk.”
Su Qingwan: “Qingwan isn’t drunk. Qingwan likes Sister Yuner, likes you so much, likes you to bits…” Before he can finish, Lu Yuner’s eyes flash with emotion and she leans in closer.
[Reading Guide]
1. The female lead is gentle, gracious, humble and polite but not weak. The male lead is initially an arrogant, noble, love-deprived brat, later a cute, clingy, scheming little jealous one.
2. 1v1, a bit torturous in the beginning but definitely sweet later on.
