Undead Seeks Warmth

Chapter 40

Shardia in the East.
Volthaizen in the West.
And Mashenoisas in the North.

This world&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip; This continent, Baveron is divided mainly by these three countries.
The『Red Rouge Plains』and『Mountain Range of Dusk』is a territory belonging to one of those countries&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip; Shardia.
This place is located at the most eastern part of this eastern country.
Hence, it is said that after crossing the Mountain range it is possible to see the end of the world.

However, I don’t have the necessary power to cross the Mountain range yet.
Thanks to the effect of eating Nee-san’s hair, I was able to Rank Skip from Rank 2 to Rank four and became an Undead Ice Angel.
It’s a mixture of an Immortal cla.s.s and Angel cla.s.s.
It’s rareness exceeds that of a Vampire.
Among monsters of the same Rank 4, it’s ability is top rank.
The best of the adventurers and the Imperial Knights of the three countries are able to match against Rank 5 monsters&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip; I can roughly understand their strength.

Even after obtaining such power, I’m unable to cross the Mountain range.
The reason for that is&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip; because all the monsters residing in the Mountain Range of Dusk are Rank 6 and above.

The number of monsters of each rank decreases the higher their rank is.
And the number of Rank 6 and above monsters living in this Mountain Range exceeds the number of Rank 6 and above monsters living all over the world.
A lot of Magic power is manufactured at night and gathers in one place, drawing all the strong monsters in.
Therefore, humans are able to thrive even without being able to defeat high-rank monsters.
Powerful monsters of Demon King cla.s.s are not interested in humans in the first place.

I strayed from my talk.
Although I’m interested in the end of the world, but I don’t think I want to see it that much after a.s.suming the high risk it would take.
Therefore, I will pa.s.s on crossing the Mountain range.
The route which I can take is to go around Shardia and search for a resurrection method.
Then, I turn towards West and face the Magic Country Volthaizen.
Or should I aim for the country in the North, Mashenoisas which designated a hero of that time as their forefather?
I have three choices.

Nee-san tells me that it would be better to stay away from Mashenoisas.
Not sure if it’s the truth or a lie, but apparently 1000 years ago, their founder a hero, defeated a Demon King, and since then they are awfully hostile towards monsters.
Certainly, by looking for hero’s heritage I may find what I’m looking for, but&h.e.l.lip;&h.e.l.lip; it certainly sounds troublesome.

If that’s the case, it’s either to stay in Shardia or head towards Volthaizen.
I ask Nee-san for her suggestion.

It seems that she has another residence, or I should rather say a castle located in Shardia.
