“Argh!”
“Ahh!”
“Kruk-rolng!”
A horde of screaming zombies rushed towards us.
“Eek! Wha-what’s happening?”
The Pope, who was clumsily shooting the crossbow, was surprised and fell backward, squashing his buttocks.
He showed a ridiculous appearance, oppressed by the fierce momentum of the frenzied zombies. Though he adjusted his posture as soon as he realized the situation.
“Ahem!”
“Even Pope, who is not inferior to anyone in divine power, seems afraid of zombies?”
I taunted, and the Pope’s complexion turned pale.
“Lord! What impolite words!”
“I just spoke the truth.”
I pointed at the zombies rushing at us recklessly.
“They are showing eyes that they will definitely kill us. It’s stranger that they are not hesitating to charge, given the circumstances.”
“…”
This time, the Pope didn’t get angry at my words.
“Kwaaa… Kwaaaa!”
The Path of Light functioned normally. Fortunately.
As the zombies approached a certain distance, the powerful divine power of the Path of Light incinerated them. Zombies engulfed in white and sacred flames disappeared without a trace within seconds.
The zombies, unaware of pain and suffering, glowed fiercely to inflict more damage on us from the moment the red patterns appeared on their foreheads.
That fact sent chills down my spine.
“Guuaaa…!”
Even though torn limbs, decaying bodies emitting a stench, and eyes swollen with congested blood were being swallowed by white flames.
The zombies, with a relentless desire to kill us at all costs, were terrifying and pitiful.
Zombies controlled without a soul.
Zombies incinerated without a trace by the sacred flames were all once humans, mostly commoners and beggars who lived in Zones 4 and 5.
Those who lost everything in the blink of an eye, including their lives and souls, fell into someone’s puppet and mindlessly killed other humans.
“Guaaaa…!”
The screams of those who had become frenzied sounded similar to cries.
Watching the countless white flames fluttering around, Zero sharpened his words.
“It’s not an ordinary bastard.”
“…Yeah.”
The culprit’s purpose was a warning and venting frustration.
“To mock those who are still alive with those who ‘used to be’ human. Bold bastard.”
‘Probably meaning to kill us, something like that.’
Otherwise, with the knowledge that all these zombies would burn away, they wouldn’t give orders to charge at us within the Path of Light.
Since there are plenty of zombies in the capital.
‘By pushing them like this, if anyone gets injured because of a zombie, it’s also a gain.’
In the small hell burning in white, I silently watched the approaching zombies.
“Guaaaah.”
Without any sense of self, the red patterns on their foreheads were vivid as they blindly rushed into the flames.
‘With this, if the red patterns appear, it’s confirmed that the culprit’s manipulation turns the zombies into mutants.’
Bang. Bang. Bang.
Moving targets are difficult to hit, but I kept shooting the magic grenade gun in my hands over the heads of the zombies.
At least, I hoped they would die as humans.
“Argh….”
Zombies hit in the head and fallen no longer burned under the attack of the Path of Light.
Just like me, my party members didn’t stop their attacks on the zombies either. The bodies of those who could only return to being human after death piled up next to the Path of Light.
“Kwaaaah!”
However, even though the fallen zombies tripped over the corpses, they continued to rush towards us.
There were times when the claws, teeth, and other body parts of the zombies being engulfed by white flames fell very close. I ignored it, but the Pope, contemplating the scene, glared at me.
“Eek! Y-Your Excellency! Zombies keep coming this way! Please dispose of those dirty and rotten things before they get closer!”
Crushed by the life force of the zombies, the Pope retreated, dragging his buttocks backward. The crossbow he was given to attack was spread open, only seeking our protection.
“The Path of Light is protecting us, so you don’t have to worry.”
“Not enough! It’s not enough! They’re chasing us like crazy; how can you be at ease? I can’t stay here anymore! I have to go back outside through the gate!”
The Pope finally lost his sanity and made whale-like sounds. Even if he was an inspiration like a fragile old man, it seemed he was a weak and frail individual.
“Well, he probably grew up in a greenhouse, only seeing precious things until he became the Pope, right? Seeing hellish scenes from the illustrations in the Bible might have been too much for someone with such a fragile mind.”
‘Although I hoped he could be a useful force, given the ability to paralyze zombies for a certain period using divine power… looking at this situation, I was completely wrong.’
It was a good thing for me. From now on, the Pope wouldn’t be able to bother us.
Priests who came with him to perform his duties tried to calm down the excited Pope, but it was futile.
“Y-Your Holiness. Stay still…”
“Am I acting calm right now?”
“But wasn’t it Your Holiness’s will to come in here? Please calm down and…”
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.
