Turning my back to the pleased Zero, I instructed my party members.
“Continue attacking the zombies.”
“What’s the goal?”
In response to Russ’s question, I pointed my finger at the zombies gathered from the beginning to the end of the path of light.
“From here to there. Remove all the gathering zombies.”
“Understood.”
“Do that.”
“Fairy friends, did you hear?”
“Considering the distance, it would be better to use crossbows rather than swords.”
Russ, Aston, Benedict, and Michael answered in turn. It was good to have party members who listened well.
Russ, capable of long-range attacks, prepared his magical spells, while Benedict seemed to be summoning fairies, intending to strike down zombies with a powerful blow.
On the other hand, Michael and Aston, who usually attacked zombies with swords, had prepared new weapons this time.
“Oh, Aston. What’s that?”
“It’s an assassination dagger.”
‘Why would you have something like that?’
It wasn’t something new but rather an item that showed signs of frequent use. His casual gesture of taking out the dagger was far from ordinary.
Could it be that he killed them and collected them every time assassins came after him?
As Aston didn’t withdraw his suspicious gaze, he explained with a start, “It’s not loot from assassins who came after me.”
How did he know just by thinking about it?
“I didn’t say anything.”
“It wasn’t that kind of look.”
“Do you always have it with you?”
“Of course. In a war zone where the threat of death is rampant, you can’t survive with just a sword. It’s better to acquire all kinds of weapons if possible. This dagger is made in the Quina style, lightweight and easy to throw towards the target, so I kept it.”
‘Does he have a lot of daggers in the pockets of his outer garment?’
I wanted to ask, but I held back. If there’s room to be curious about such things in a situation facing zombies, it’s better to deal with one more.
“I won’t say it explicitly, but I expect great contributions from Prince Aston.”
“Didn’t you ask me to call you Aston?”
“…It doesn’t suit my taste. It’s difficult.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.”
Afterwards, Aston, with skills rivaling assassins, threw the daggers with remarkable precision, making five of them fly at once and causing the zombies in front to stumble backward.
“Gruuh!”
Screaming without words, the zombies fell. Aston continued to throw daggers without a change in expression, as if throwing them away like a hedgehog pulling out its thorns.
Thud. Thud. Thud. As the zombies fell like dominoes with their heads precisely hit, other zombies around them staggered.
“Grrrr…”
“G, Uwaaaaah.”
Invisible human-like entities kept attacking, making them look bewildered.
Michael, remaining calm, swiftly and accurately shot zombies one by one with his crossbow next to Aston.
“Gguaak!”
“Grrrr!”
Thud.
The crossbow, hitting zombies’ skulls completely, boasted tremendous power compared to when maids used it. It was only enhanced by Michael’s sacred power, showcasing an incredibly skilled performance. The skill of piercing two zombies at once as if making kebabs left me speechless.
“Wow, Sir Michael. You could consider changing your major to crossbows. Your skill is amazing.”
“Thank you. I suppose not neglecting training has paid off.”
The platinum-haired young man who smiled like an angel didn’t neglect shooting his crossbow even while talking with me. Kweak. Another zombie had its head pierced, and it collapsed to the ground.
“If the people at the mansion do just this much, there won’t be anything to fear.”
“If you wish, I will do my best as a Hell’s Supervisor.”
“Well… No. It seems like I alone would be enough to suffer from Michael and Prince Aston.”
While I expect an increase in the survivors’ strength, Michael and Aston, the deadliest of the deadly, might run away if they genuinely lead people like soldiers.
“These guys might not be human, huh?”
“I’ve had that thought too, Zero. It seems like we’ve gathered party members who are anything but ordinary.”
Watching the party members, it was unbelievable. How big of an advantage did the original male protagonist, Prince Hwang, have to be chosen by the female protagonist? Is it because of their status? Damn caste system. Pfft.
Even though I was trapped in useless thoughts, I didn’t stop filling magic bullets and shooting zombies.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
“Flames and ice spears, pierce the impure ones.”
“Turn those wicked ones who bring chaos to this land into ashes.”
Ruth and Benedict’s area-of-effect magic and elemental spells mercilessly struck down the zombies with tremendous speed and power.
“Kkiyeee!”
“Grraah!”
“Woo… Aaaah!”
Zombies that couldn’t leave the vicinity of the light path and wandered were gradually crumbling under our attacks.
As zombies fell one by one on the road, the corpses of people who were once zombies piled up like a dam beside them.
“Heeek!”
“Woook.”
The weak priests of the dilapidated temple looked at the hellish scene and finally vomited.
You could vomit. But I wish you did it a bit farther away. I don’t want to smell vomit along with the stench of decay.
Ex-husband Wants Reconciliation
One-line summary: Chasing the wife to the crematorium (making an effort to attract someone who has become indifferent), the female lead doesn’t look back, the second male lead takes the position.
Intro:
To repay the kindness of the older generation, Su Mu crossed into a female-dominated world and became a live-in daughter-in-law of the Yan family, single-handedly saving the Yan family from fire and water.
But her husband, Yan Jiyue, the eldest son of the Yan family, treated her with sarcasm and never showed her a good face.
It wasn’t until after Su Mu’s death that this pampered and arrogant young master shed a few fake tears and pretended to want to die for love.
This life’s kindness was enough. If there was a next life, she would definitely kick Yan Jiyue away.
Who knew that the heavens would be so kind as to allow her to be reborn, returning to the time when she had just married into the Yan family.
Su Mu glanced at the Yan eldest son, who still spoke coldly to her, and threw a divorce letter in front of him.
“Let’s divorce!”
***
Yan Jiyue never imagined that he would be reborn. He happily went to find Su Mu, wanting to make up for the mistakes he had made in his ignorant youth.
Wasn’t the reason the heavens allowed him to be reborn to let him reconcile with Su Mu?
But when he pushed open the door to Su Mu’s room, the person lying on the bed was another man.
Su Mu’s personal attendant, Xie Yi.
Yan Jiyue hated him so much that his teeth itched. In front of Su Mu, Xie Yi was a gentle and considerate whisperer of sweet nothings, but in reality, he was vicious-hearted and deliberately sabotaged their husband and wife relationship.
In the previous life, it was he who secretly hid in Su Mu’s coffin and committed suicide, stealing a step ahead of him to be buried with Su Mu.
Yan Jiyue’s eyes were filled with hatred as he cursed, “What kind of thing are you? Your background is lowly, what right do you have to occupy Su Mu?”
Xie Yi looked at the sleeping Su Mu and no longer pretended to be a whisperer of sweet nothings.
He proudly stuck out his belly, “I have the right because my belly is capable of giving the Wife-master a daughter.”
***
Yan Jiyue was consumed with jealousy. He spread rumors that Xie Yi had once been branded with the mark of a “harlot” on his chest.
But on the night Xie Yi cut off the flesh bearing that mark, Su Mu suddenly realized something was amiss.
“How did you know the exact moment I was poisoned? And why did you show up a month early?”
Xie Yi remained silent, blood from his wound soaking through his robes. His sapphire eyes brimmed with anguish – or was it just a flawless act?
Between a once-arrogant husband now seeking redemption, and a gentle soul willing to die for her – who truly held the darkest secrets? And could it be that Su Mu and Yan Jiyue weren’t the only ones given a second chance at life…?
