Chapter 13 . Army of the dead .
(Kuuhh… You bastard! What exactly are you?!)
The voice of the cursed sword was heard . While I was picking up the lottery ticket, that voice that I heard earlier had definitely tried to do something to me, it was trying to possess me .
However, it didn’t go well and I heard the voice grew tired of trying .
“It’s Yuuki Kakeru . ”
(I’ve never said that I want to know your name! What I asked you bastard was what exactly are you?! Why can’t I take over your body?!)
“Even if you ask me that…”
I wonder why myself .
(This is the first time I cannot take over a human body! Muu– You bastard, your soul color!)
“Eh?”
(What’s with that color, you are not an ordinary human are you?!)
“I’m just your normal human though . ”
Ah, I might not be your normal human . There might be some difference as I was a human who came from another world .
(This color, it’s the same color as the Supreme Ruler Rodotos . No, more than that…)
The cursed sword was mumbling in silent about something .
“Now then, I wonder what should I do with you . ”
(Mu~?)
“As I thought should I just go and beat you up until you get broken to smitherens? Uun . . ”
(Dare not underestimate me human! Even though I cannot take over your body, there are countless way for me to make you consign yourself to me!)
“Ehhh!!!”
I was quite surprised as I was being negligent . Thus I put my guard up thinking that something is coming . After that, the cursed sword began to emit light . It was a dark— ominous sort of light . The next instant, the ground spring upwards .
Ghosts holding a rope, armored skeletons and a groaning zombies .
Surely—– .
(This is the undead army that had trampled over Retria Kingdom a long time ago . My army of the dead, kill that man!)
“Kuhh!!! I was careless!”
(Ah, hahahahahha)
A loud laughter resonated inside my brain . The undead army came attacking at once .
Strike them down— was what I had thought but, I remember something that was in my hold .
Cursed Sword . Though it might be the one who had summoned the Undead army, but above everything else . It’s just a cursed sword .
“… . . ”
I try to swing the sword . I swing the sword against the skeleton who was acting as the vanguard .
Its helmet was broken and then split its head into two .
“Ohh, not bad . ”
(Na! Bastard what are you trying to do! How insolent of you to actually use me as a tool for attacking!)
Seems like it was complaining about something, but I give it no heed and continue using it as just a normal sword .
I accept the Skeleton’s strike and break it’s bone . I blow away the Ghost’s magic and cut off it’s rope . The bodily fluid was out of the ordinarily disgusting so I launched a fire magic attack from a long distance against the zombie .
All the monster that came attacking were defeated .
(Ignoring me… Then how about this!)
After the cursed sword said something, it suddenly became heavy as if it was falling from my hold .
Plunging through, it cut through the ground as if it was made out of tofu and sunk deeply into the ground .
(Fuhahaha… How is it! I can even pull out trick like this! The me right now is as heavy as a colossal dragon!)
“As heavy as a colossal dragon? Oi oi, what happened with law of conservation of mass?”
… . It was not something that I should say now that I’m in a different world but I couldn’t help but to give a punchline .
(Now what will you do… . Even so you still won’t let go of me? It’s fine if you keep on holding me you know? As my dark force that wields me…)
“Funnuuuuuu!!!”
I put my strength into my waist and pull the cursed sword as hard as I can . Indeed, it’s heavy, but it was not at the level where I couldn’t lift it up .
If feels just like throwing hammer, using the centrifugal force to swing the cursed sword around .
Peerless restart! I beat down even more undead army .
(You bastard! That is bullshit you know! How can you swing me around, am I not heavy?!)
“No no no . You are heavy . You can already know just by looking right?”
If you’re not heavy, I wouldn’t swing you the way I did just now .
(Not to that level!)
The cursed sword began to clamor even more . As I got near to the skeleton whom I have defeated into pieces (I don’t know which part of it is the body or where the eye was), I saw something shining amongst the bones that were scattered on the ground .
It was a light that I had collection of— lottery ticket!
I see . Just by beating monster like this, there are chances of getting a lottery ticket . I became even more motivated . I increased my pace and defeated a lot more monster .
Undead army, certainly after beating the monster that well earned the title my back became sweaty . After I finished, I turned around collecting lottery ticket . Counting from that moment on, every 100 monster would drop at least 1 lottery ticket . I wonder what exactly is the drop ratio for the lottery ticket .
(You bastard! What exactly are you doing!)
I heard the cursed sword voice .
“What you asked me… I’m collecting this . ”
While holding the cursed sword, I flutter the lottery ticket around and showed it . There was no response, however as I was holding the cursed sword I can feel how troubled the cursed sword was .
… . It cannot see the ticket?
I wonder if I am the only human who can see this lottery ticket . Next time when I’m drawing the ticket I’ll ask the staff about it .
That was what I planned but, the ‘next time’ that I’ve said had quickly disappeared . When I gathered all the lottery ticket, adding with the tickets that I had before I had enough of 10 pieces of lottery tickets .
10 lottery tickets, I now can draw the lottery 11 times .
Thus I plan to draw these tickets with no further ado .
How do I get there again, do I have to wish for it just like that and I’ll get there? I want to go to the drawing room– thus as I was thinking that I walk around the forest aimlessly with the cursed sword in my hold .
About the time when I realized it, the scenery that I was at had already changed . The lottery drawing room, and even the staff was there . I should give the staff my lottery ticket right .
I then head toward the staff and the lottery machine .
“Hello, I came here to draw lottery . ”
“Dearest customer, it will be quite troublesome if you bring other people that has nothing to do with this . ” The stuff suddenly said and looked at me intently .
“Bring other people? But I’m the only one here though . ”
“Then how about the one over there?” the staff pointed out at behind my back .
When I turned around, behind me was a little girl . It was a little girl who wore a one-piece dress that looked about 5 years old . The girl was looking very surprised and she stared at my palm .
“This form, this is my form when I was still a human . ”
“Me?”
The way this girl address herself is something that I had collection about, don’t tell me this girl is—
“I don’t know what had caused such turnout however, with this form I can finally interfere . Diee!!”
The young girl came charging at me . But I stopped her calmly . I pulled out my hand and place it on top of her head . As for the young girl who was stopped… . she started to attack me with childish punch . It was a punch that was very suitable with her look right now, a very cute childish punch that it was downright scary .
Childish punch that won’t hit, the young girl began to have a teary eyes . She then jumped backward .
“Kuhh! It has been a few hundred years since I was in a flesh form so it can’t be helped . However for now, when I can’t beat you in sword form, I can beat you now using the undead army . ”
“Mu~?”
“Come forth! My army of the dead!”josei
I pushed out my hand and I put my guard up .
*Shinnn*
Nothing happened .
“Why! Why won’t they come out!”
“… . . ”
I loosen my guard, somehow understanding something . I don’t know how did she retain her human form but there is one thing that I know for sure, in this human form . She cannot do anything .
What that said, I put up dealing with her later .
“Execuse me, I have collected 10 lottery tickets and I would like to draw it now . ”
“Each and every one of you ignoring me… . ”
There was a strike coming from my back .
*Poka poka* *poka poka*
Kuuu!!! she’s the hardest enemy that I had to put up against with up until now, in a lot of meanings .
