When I arrived in the Nald town, the first thing I did before looking for a lodging was visiting the cemetery. Because Nald was pretty big town, its cemetery also considerably large. There were only tombstone and withered tree as far as the eye can see.

The crows crying while flapping their wings, grave keeper cabin that likely to crumble at any time also built there. Everything made the air felt great. I really didn"t want to sleep outdoor but for necromancer, cemetery is the most calming place after all.

"…Yeah! I can feel the fresh corpses gathered here!"

I got satisfied after looked around the cemetery.

"Nene-sama, what will we do this time?"

Flan seemed unable to calm down and asked. This girl, even though she was undead she seems still not really good with corpse or anything similar.

"This town you know, will be occupied by the demon tribe in three days."

"Why… Nene-sama know that?"

"Because I know everything?"

"I see! Nene-sama really knows everything!"

While admiring her for how honest she was, I continued my story.

"So, because the town will release a quest to recapture the town, I"m thinking about putting some underling throughout the town for the quest at once. Grandma also said it, for cooking and dead body, preparation is important!"

Flan repeatedly blinking her eyes.

"Err… that"s… isn"t it better to defeat the demon tribe before they occupy the town…?"

"… Eh? Why?"

"If we know when and how they will attack, then we could protect the town, and we can do it without injuring the town resident."

"…Aaa! Aaa! That"s right! I didn"t think that idea…"

I was careless! I only thought about how I can complete the quest before the Brave. But then I put both of my index finger on my temple and tilt my body to the side. Thinking.

"But, if we defeat the demon tribe before the quest released we can"t get the rewards right? And I can"t get my revenge to the Brave…"

"Still, Nene-sama can save the live of the citizen! Because Nene-sama is kind, Nene-sama should give priority to human life."

"It"s not like I"m kind you know…"

"No, Nene-sama is very kind! I believe in Nene-sama!"

"Un……"

I was troubled with how she saw me with her sparkling eyes.

"I"ll tell you again, I"m not traveling because I want to save people…"

"Nene-sama saved my life!"

"I"m didn"t save you! You"re dead!"

"Nene-sama…"

Her eyes sparkling.

"Jeez… it can"t be helped! Only this time! Only this time you know!"

I emphasized it multiple times while hitting my waist with my hand.

So, the power of magical being[1] increase when night-time.

Based on information I gathered from the first playthrough, the demon tribe will start their attack from the town"s west gate. Then a sudden roar raised up from the silent wilderness, it was a sign of group of kobold make onslaught.

"Ghahaha!" "Kill! Kill! Kill!" "Trample down human being!" "They are sleeping soundly in the night, it"s will be an easy victory!" "Let"s party!!"

Such voices were reverberated, well it wasn"t human voice though. Because I learn the magical being"s language in necromancer village, I know the meaning. At any rate they were in high tension.

"Unfortunately, there were also a lot of human who not sleeping in the night. Come, do your best as my behalf!"

When I gave command and raised my hands, a lot of (cold) human being came out from the ground. Rather than human, they were corpses. After absorbing nutrient from magic potion I poured before, zombie-chans rushed toward the kobolds.

"Gyaa!? What!?" "It"s zombie b.a.s.t.a.r.d!!" "Why they come to us!?" "Don"t know! Defeat them!"

Attacking the army of Kobolds, the zombies gradually defeated.

"Haha! Even though we are the weakest of the demon tribe, like h.e.l.l we will lose to zombie!!" "There is still something below the underling! I really feel that pleasure right now!"

The Kobolds were in high spirit. However,

"Grruuuaa!!!"

Defeated zombie attack kobolds army again.

"You guys noisy!"

"Gruaa!"

"d.a.m.n!"

"Gruaa!!!"

"Shi…"

Garigari musha musha bori bori! [TN: Munching sfx]

The kobolds army swallowed by crown of hungry zombies.

No matter how many time the zombie defeated, they didn"t feel any pain or anything and it will keep attacking even if only its head remained. The only way to completely defeat them is to erase them using strong fire power.

When the battlefield went silent as the kobolds army became zombies food, the demon tribe commander flew down. A vampire, the retainer of the night. It was high level demon tribe that can"t be compared with kobold.

The vampire looked down at me with wide opened eyes and lifted its lips which was thickly painted with lipstick.

"You b.a.s.t.a.r.d… necromancer right? Why? The resident of the necromancer village should be our, the demon king"s alliance! Why you get in our way?"

"Well, it seems fun to be in the human side… and I got money. and also… I want to be praised."

I added the last words while scratching my cheek.

"Want to be praised!? Don"t lie! There is no way necromancer will move with such cute reason! You b.a.s.t.a.r.d should be more wicked evil inhuman bunch!"

"Isn"t that too harsh?"

"No! That"s the truth! You b.a.s.t.a.r.d who fall into h.e.l.l"s divine!"

The vampire n.o.ble spitting.

Even the demon tribe who supposed to be the bad guys said such thing about necromancer. As expected of necromancer village, its reputation is the worst, not only from human but also from demon tribe.

"… well, it"s fine. Either way, you"ve bare your fang toward us. Even though necromancer is our alliance, there is no worth to keep you alive."

With a terrible speed, the vampire flew and tried to tear me up with its long nails. However, Flan already antic.i.p.ated it and cut the nails with her sword. The vampire opened its eyes wide.

"That, that sword is… the Brave"s sword!? What does that mean!? You b.a.s.t.a.r.d, are you the Brave? Even though you smell like undead!!"

"I"m not the Brave… but I will crush the enemy of Nene-sama!!"

Flan"s sword and the vampire"s nail clashing each other on the air and made spark each time they meet.

On the background of such scene, the ground swelled up. Large amount of soil and sand slid and the skeleton dragon that I hid appear from underground.

"Wha…!?"

The vampire immediately jumped aside, its body became mist and escape from the skeleton dragon"s jaw.

"Ah, so close!"

I was disappointed.

"Yo, you even using dragon!? This is bad… we have to redo our preparation!!"

The vampire made mad rush escape.

Finally I can take a sigh.

"Yeah, I want to do a bit more though."

"But Nene-sama is amazing! To annihilate the demon tribe army is too amazing! With this we save a lot of citizen life! Nene-sama is great!"

As usual sparkling eyed Flan.

"Well… whatever."

Then, because sleepy, I returned to the inn.

[The Brave Side]

"d.a.m.n d.a.m.n d.a.m.n d.a.m.n!! There"s no money, no food, no sword!! There is also no town that attacked by monsters, this is the worst s.h.i.t!!"

The brave ranted while walking on the main road.

"Brave… don"t shouting too much, you will get more hungry." the warrior rebuke.

"Shut up! Or rather, let"s sell Sara"s body in town! That can be a little source of money right!?"

"I don"t wanna. I don"t want to have disgusting old man as my partner." the priestess shivering.

And so, the brave saw a male vampire stood up on the big tree ahead of them.

"Eh, isn"t that demon tribe…?"

"His equipment seems to be expensive doesn"t it? Yosh, let"s hunt it! If we can sell his equipment, we can get drink today!"

"Aah, that"s good idea."

When the brave silently approach, the vampire noticed them raised its eyebrow.

"Who are you?"

"Me? I"m the Brave Bligs! I"m planning to defeat your lord but for now, let"s start with kill you first."

"Is that so. But unfortunately, I don"t have any time to play with third-rate like you."

"Hah!? Third-rate!? What are you saying b.a.s.t.a.r.d! I told you I"m the Brave!"

"Leaving that aside, I really curious about that necromancer girl… why, why she attack us and save the human town…? And even though just a girl, she has unthinkable and dreadful power… even the successor of Durandal and dragon serve her… what on earth she is…? What countermeasure should we use…?"

After mumbling by himself for a while, that vampire immediately fly away. Not even turn his face to the Brave.

"Oi! Wait! I told you to Wait!"

Even the Brave shout over and over, the vampire ignore him.
