Chapter 486 - Durian\'s Mansion (part 10) - A Little Push

"Z-Zombie...!"

Mia gasped in a hushed voice, staring at the corpses of her former colleagues\' collapsed in the puddles of blood.

"Yeah, yeah – we can have a memorial for them later – now we must hurry – I was a little bit louder than I expected and there are more on the way here."

The blue undead shrugged his shoulders and waved his hand at the dark-skinned woman and the red-haired girl to follow him.

"There are more on the way...? Wait! You knew that they are going to walk into them and did nothing to warn us?! We could have taken a different path or...!"

"Yeah, whatever – let\'s go – I don\'t mind ripping apart every single person with a slave crest, but Maripo and Roan are going to have a walk-in with Luke and I doubt that either of them is powerful enough to deal with him – and we do not want them turned in to Durian by his elite slave."

Zombie scoffed dismissively and motioned forward with his chin.

"We need to move – this way is still the least used one – if you want us to go back, it\'s your choice, but then we will meet up with more of the brainwashed slaves and I will kill them all."

"!!!!!"

The blue undead added, staring at the flabbergasted Mia with his black eyes glowing with a reddish glow of the life signature detection skill.

"...fine..."

The dark-skinned woman clenched her fists and spat through her teeth, not looking the blue undead in the eyes.

"...just... tell me when we will get to the next group – I have a skill that specializes in knocking the target unconscious so there\'s no need to just kill everyone – since they very likely can be saved just like I was. Oka...?"

*click*

*BOOOOM*

*WHAM*

"ZOMBIE...!"

Before the dark-skinned woman could properly finish her sentence, the door down the hallway opened and more of the people with vacant faces showed up, prompting the blue undead to grin wildly before kicking off with enough power to break in the wooden floor and smashing against the door with enough power to turn its pieces into deadly shrapnel that pierced right through two more slaves before Mia and Cranberry even had the chance to see them.

"Khahaha...! Oh, umm, sorry – you were saying...?"

The blue undead laughed seeing the mutilated corpse nailed to the wall with the splintered door before flinching, turning back at the horrified dark-skinned woman, and tilting his head asking her with a completely clueless and innocent voice.

"You! Pride girl! He is your familiar, right?! Tell him to stop killing everyone! This will turn into a political scandal! Durian is an influential member of the Greed family and he will not turn a blind eye on something like that!"

Mia gritted her teeth and turned to Cranberry in desperation.

"He might be my familiar too, but he is my husband – and I do not see a problem with him having some fun at the expense of people who wish harm onto my friends."

The red-haired girl stepped away from Mia and declared, proudly puffing out her chest and glaring at the dark-skinned woman – still very much angry about the scene that she walked into before with her and Zombie in a compromising position.

"You...! You can\'t be serious!"

Mia gasped and cried out in disbelief after the girl who trotted towards the blue undead and clung to his hand, not caring about stepping on the ever-growing puddles of blood.

"Hey – right now the Greed family – the avatar of Greed specifically - lost a considerable amount of power, I\'ll have you know. Now come – Luke might not listen to me, but he sure will not ignore you."

Zombie smiled at the red-haired girl who rejoined his side and beckoned the dark-skinned woman.

"Unless you want me to deal with Luke my way... As much as I like you both, I\'m not stupid enough to not realize that as soon as something inconvenient happened to you, you went straight to someone who is supposed to have power over me – giving up the negotiations way too fast in my opinion."

The blue undead shrugged his shoulders and reached out his left hand...

...that started glowing with pale white light and a golden kite shield with a fist-sized ruby mana stone in the middle appeared, already strapped to his forearm...

|Hypocrite~|

|And a liar... I should have had started using Monty\'s shield way sooner... none of my shield skills are maxed out yet...|

*WHAM*

"!!!!"

Zombie smirked at the sealed being\'s comment spoken in a cute voice before turning serious as he complained internally – right as he slammed the shield against the wall, startling Cranberry clinging to his right hand.

"What the hell are you doing now?!"

Mia flinched and started walking towards the pair, not mentioning anything about the topic brought up by the blue undead.

"Oh, I just..."

The blue undead shrugged his shoulders and aimed the golden shield ruby-first in front of him...

*****

Immediately after, the mana stone shone with pale light and released a beam of light that pierced through the air...

...and the heart of a woman with a vacant expression that barely showed up...

"...ah...!"

The female slave managed to gasp before collapsing on the floor.

"...preparing the long-distance attack. This toy is pretty useful, don\'t you think?"

Zombie finished his sentence with a warm smile, raising the golden shield to boast about it while Mia was staring wide-eyed at the collapsed slave.

"I\'m going first from now on!"

The dark-skinned declared in a strained voice with her mace already glowing with the white light of skill at the ready – while hurriedly moving in front of the blue undead and the red-haired girl.

"...sorry, Pear..."

She whispered while passing the corpse and moved forward, gripping her weapon – more worried about the next slave that would show up than about herself.

"Well, that makes things easier I guess..."

Zombie watched her go and sighed in disappointment before Cranberry pulled him after the dark-skinned woman.

"...hey., Zombie... Do you think you could take it easy on the brainwashed slaves? I have a quest that requires me to gain a certain number of followers, and I think that if we manage to heal them as you did with that girl, they would be willing to join me... please...?"

"...!"

The red-haired girl wrapped her hands tighter around Zombie\'s arm and asked in an innocent, cutesy tone, making him raise his brows.

|I remember a quest about getting a follower from the first playthrough...! Is this something like a follow up to that?!|

|...|

He gasped internally, but the sealed being did not respond, appearing as if she was grumpy over something.

"Please...?"

Cranberry leaned her head towards the blue undead and asked hesitantly again.

"Sure. If that\'s what you want."

The blue undead looked up at her face before giving up and nodding.

*wham* *wham* *wham* *wham*

"...!"

The four hollow-hit sounds reverberated through the hallway, taking the pair\'s attention off of themselves.

"Oh, Mia already got the next group."

Zombie nodded in realization before glancing back.

"Since I\'m not supposed to kill them now, I guess we should follow her a bit faster, or your potential followers\' will catch up to us and I will kill them."

He added, increasing the speed at which they were moving.
