Oh no! After I Reincarnated, My Moms Became Son-cons!

As soon as I went out, I b.u.mped into Nier, who was fully geared up and about to come in . She paused for a moment then She shoved me back inside: “Your Majesty, it might become very dangerous outside . You must remain inside your room from this moment onwards . I will protect you at your side . You don’t need to worry . ”

“What about Lucia?”

“Lucia will soon be here, too . Don’t thoughtlessly come out . The battle that will take place outside isn’t one we can partake in . Only Queen Vyvyan and Her Majesty can handle it . ”

“What about Ying?”

“They’re on another s.h.i.+p . They’re already prepared . The waves outside are gradually rising in magnitude . Your Majesty, you must pay attention to your own safety . Not only will you be of no a.s.sistance, but you will also distract Her Majesty . It’s best for us to just stay here . Leave it all to them . You just need to keep yourself safe . ”

I looked at Nier’s stern expression and hopelessly nodded .  True, I didn’t have any method to help them or the ability to . All I could do was hole up in my room; let them fight and wait for it to end . Nevertheless, I would be panic-stricken if I couldn’t watch the fight . I couldn’t help but conjure up all sorts of terrifying possible scenarios in my mind .

I wanted to watch . I’d feel rea.s.sured if I could watch them slay the wyrm . Our original plan was very good; but nonetheless, the violent waves and wild winds still instilled a terrifying sense of terror in me . The large s.h.i.+ps we could be proud of were but mere toys in the face of the disaster . We were in the wyrm’s hunting grounds . It was the tiger; we were the rabbit it hunted, I would presume . Of course, I wasn’t referring to the rabbit that could beat me to death with its bare hands .

The furious waves a.s.saulted our s.h.i.+p, rocking it . I didn’t know which s.h.i.+p the wyrm would attack, for Vyvyan and I were both considered food, and we were on separate s.h.i.+ps . If it attacked Ying’s s.h.i.+p, then great, but if it attacked ours…

“Something’s there!! Something’s in the water!! They’re swimming toward our s.h.i.+p! They’re coming up!!” Lucia shouted from outside .

The flames on the deck were flickering unpredictably . Accompanying the flames was the sound of metal clas.h.i.+ng and terrified screams . Nier aggressively drew her blade and adapted her fighting stance . She guarded the door . I hid behind her with my handgun drawn . I suddenly remembered that I didn’t have any spare ammunition; I only had six bullets . That meant I could only hit six enemies if I could hit every single shot .

The enemies were flood corpses . The sailors weren’t soldiers . They were only responsible for jobs on board . Although there were rifles aboard, using bayonets wasn’t their specialty . Untrained soldiers would throw down their weapons and flee at any hint of a soldier nearby screaming . The issue was there was nowhere to escape to on the s.h.i.+p .

Lucia yanked the door open with one hand and rushed in . In the same instant she shut the door tight the screams outside and smell of blood gushed in . I was no longer afraid of the violence, though . Nier turned to look at me . To rea.s.sure me, she said, “It’s all right, Your Majesty . There are Valkyries on board . These Flood Corpses are no match for us . You just need to stay here…”

As Nier spoke, she thrust her sword toward the wooden door and pierced straight through it . I heard the cry of a wild beast and a heavy thud on the wall . Nier pulled her sword back . A sticky green liquid ran off the blade . Cold gaze on the door, she stated, “Sorry, Your Majesty, it seems I was a little overconfident . The useless crew has probably split the Valkyries up . They’re likely fighting in small groups on deck now, and thereby have their hands too full to protect us . ”

I blankly looked at the hole Nier made in the door . The flames and corpses lying in every direction clogged the deck . The sailors must’ve been swamped by the flood corpses already . The heavy footsteps and roars on deck obviously belonged to the ama.s.sed flood corpses .

I didn’t know if the wyrm showed up or not, but the flood corpses overran our s.h.i.+p already . The Valkyries could easily kill the flood corpses; but unfortunately, there were only a few of them . Meanwhile, the flood corpses were basically a crumbling island in the water that could sink at any moment . Furthermore, the crew fled helter skelter, thereby splitting up the Valkyries . The Valkyries, consequently, couldn’t concentrate their fighting power .

I reasoned, “What do I do? If we don’t leave this room, will Nier and Lucia, alone, be enough to hold on? No, that’s not what I should be asking . The question should be if this s.h.i.+p will last . If this continues, they’ll kill the Valkyries, too, within a matter of time!”

I looked around my room . There was nothing in the room . My bullets were all in the ocean . I only had six bullets, and I wasn’t certain I could land every single shot . If Nier and Lucia went out, they’d be no different to the Valkyries who were split up .

“What do I do?” I asked myself .

“It’s all right, Your Majesty . It’s not difficult for the two of us to guard a single door . ”

Nier raised her sword and watched the door . She revealed a smile that was intended to rea.s.sure me . However, it instantly turned into a stern and confrontational look . Lucia stayed next to me and took hold of my hand . With a smile, she softly said, “It’s all right, Your Highness . We will be sure to protect you . I will be sure to protect you . ”

“Uhm, but we can’t just stay here forever .   I must take a stand . I must take this s.h.i.+p back . ”

Nier sniffled . The sea of blood outside seeped into the air; it smelt as if I smelt corpses . The mountain of corpses outside blocked the door . The shadows of the flood corpses lingered by the door; they seemed to be aware of our existence but didn’t enter for some reason .

Nier tensely watched the door . We couldn’t get out if they didn’t get out of the way . I irritably fumbled through my bag . I poured everything out onto the bed . I looked at everything there .

I only had some meagre amount of coins left in my wallet, my chest pin as the Prince of humanity, Nier’s protective amulet and a few round bottles rolling around…I picked up a bottle and checked out the liquid inside . The liquid was the mana dissolving potion that I prepared and was the same thing that almost killed me . It was a poison that could melt an elf’s organs .

“Flood Corpses… They’re revived ent.i.ties… Flood…” I mumbled in silence .

An idea abruptly hit me . Although I wasn’t certain the idea would work, it was plausible in theory . The wyrm created the flood corpses . Dead people couldn’t be revived, so they must’ve been mobile zombies possessing mana . Subsequently, the liquid in the bottle could reduce them to a puddle .

“Let’s head out,” I said . Nier looked at me with a startled look . I took in a deep breath and explained, “Let’s head out, Nier . Let’s head out . I want to try this . If it works, I’ll protect you two this time!”

As soon as I went out, I b.u.mped into Nier, who was fully geared up and about to come in . She paused for a moment then She shoved me back inside: “Your Majesty, it might become very dangerous outside . You must remain inside your room from this moment onwards .
