My Refrigerator Turned Into A Dungeon

Chapter 126:

Gather! Oh, My Salt!

The day after spending a sweet night with Nina-san. She said, "[Riding a motorcycle is a bit scary]," and took the bus to go to the university.

"Now, I guess it's time for me to head out too…"

And where am I headed? Well, it's off to the chiropractic school where I've been resting in the darkness for a long time.

…..

"Yo, Sato. You good? What, don't recognize me? It's me, Ezuki."

"Eh!? Z-Zukki-san!? What happened to you…? What's with that appearance?"

"It's nothing. Before I knew it, I ended up like this."

"Is, is that even possible!? Oh, by the way, I'm Kato."

From a macho man, for some reason, I evolved into an Amazoness macho futa. However, after exposing myself naked in a public bath, I felt refreshed. So, now I confidently go to school as an Amazoness macho newhalf, without tails or horns. If I act confidently, that's enough.

"But… you disappeared for a while. Muto-san wanted to see Zukki-san."

"Oh, now that you mention it, I haven't seen old man Muto. He's usually around at this time, right?"

"Muto-san completed the curriculum and graduated safely. He opened a shop, and we went to help with the opening."

"Oh, is that so? Sorry, I couldn't help."

"The address written on this business card is it. Zukki-san, he asked me to give it to you when you come."

"Let me see… Muto Chiropractic Clinic. It's just as it was. Well, that's good for Muto-san. I'll go visit the store next time."

[Baan!]

Suddenly, the door was violently opened, and a chubby barcode-headed old man rolled into the classroom with force.

"D-Dangerous! Z-Zombies are here!"

(Oh, that's the office old man, right?)

Then, as if chasing the panicking old man, the emergency bell of the building rang loudly.

"Kyaaaah!"

And from outside the window, there was a scream like tearing silk. In response, students near the window gathered, looking down at the road from the window, showing surprise. What's going on? What did they see?

"Hey, what's happening… Oh!"

Looking through the window over the shoulders of the gathered students, I saw a shabby zombie walking aimlessly. And the destination of that zombie was a young office lady in a bank-like uniform. Moreover, she seemed to have lost strength in her legs and was crouched on the asphalt, unable to escape the approaching zombie.

The students watching from the third-floor window kept urging, "Hurry, run!" or "Stand up!" But the OL, with a frightened face, just trembled. Meanwhile, inside the classroom, the chubby barcode-headed old man who rolled into the room shouted, "Hurry! Help me barricade the door!"

(Is this, what on earth is happening? Ha! Could this be the rumored Dungeon Stampede!? Is this the moment we've all been waiting for…)

"Hey, hurry! Run!"

"Shut up, you're in the way. Move!"

Grabbing a student who was yelling by the window, he pulled him away and threw an iron barbell toward the approaching zombie. By the way, that iron barbell was a fixture in the classroom.

[Gah!… Dopaah…]

The spinning iron barbell hit the back of the zombie's head with a clean hit, embedding itself like a chonmage. With that impact, the zombie slowly fell, and dark black blood spread slowly on the asphalt.

"Hii…!"

Then, the classroom got immediately enveloped in a frozen silence. The students who were watching were shocked and held their breath at my actions.

(Huh, what's with this atmosphere? I just defeated a monster, you know? Now that smoke is rising, and that zombie is, wait, why not? Why isn't it disappearing!?)

""Hii…!""

"Eh…?"

The students in the classroom, recoiled as if looking at me like something terrifying.

(Eh? Did I accidentally kill someone or something…? Is this, like, some prank? But, it's definitely a zombie.)

"Hwaaaaah! Someone, help!"

"Yeah, right! Okay, let's go, Salt Shoot!"

[Gboh!]josei

Rock salt struck the back of the chonmage zombie crawling on the blood-soaked asphalt. Then, as if decomposed by the purifying power of the sacred salt, the purified area disappeared, and the zombie finally stopped its activity.

"Amazing! Zukki-san, what did you do!?"

[Baaaann! Zukidaan!]

"Wow! Zombies are coming!"

Kato, who had been watching the whole thing, excitedly called out. But before I could answer, the situation escalated.

Now the classroom door was vigorously pounded from the corridor side. It seems that the zombies the barcode-headed old man mentioned had reached the third-floor corridor of this classroom.

Damn, I never thought it would come to this, so I left the Bug King Suit in the dungeon antechamber. I really don't want to fight zombies without the suit. If I get infected with some zombie virus, it would be a disaster…

Damn it, what should I do in a situation like this!

(Bo-waaan. Naruhito, trust in the salt.)

(Ha! Th-this voice is, the tiny Salt God!?)

"—Zukki-san! Zukki-san!"

"Ha…!?"

"Why are you spacing out all of a sudden? Hurry, defeat the zombies in the corridor like earlier!"

(No, it's not my imagination! I definitely heard the voice of the tiny Salt God. If that's the case!)

"Kato! Sato! Carry the treatment beds and build a barricade in front of the door!"

"Eh!? And what about Zukki-san!?"

"I will meditate!"

"Hey! Don't joke around at a time like this!"

"I'm dead serious! Just buy some time! If you do that, I'll handle the rest!"

"Please, I'm counting on you! Hey, Kato!"

"Alright, Sato, you take care of that side! Gotou-chan, tell the guy just standing there trembling to move!"

"Uh, okay!"

Kato, Sato, and Gotou-chan began working together to carry the treatment beds to build a barricade. Alright, I need to hurry too.

"Koooh… Ko-ha. Chakra on! Let's meditate!"

Adjusting my breath, I activated the skill [Meditation] and entered a meditative state while standing. Then, I reached out strongly to the salt spirits from the depths of my heart.

(…Ha… Ha… Haa…)

(That's right. Salt spirits. Yeah, something seems to be going wrong. So now, lend me your power…!)

(…Ha… Ha… Haa…)

(Oh, I see… You're responding! Thank you…!!)

"[Degyuun! Shuwa-shuwa-shuwa-shuwa…]"

From the channel connected to the salt spirits, the presence of the spirits, and their power filled my body. When I opened my eyes, a shining white light overflowed from all five senses.

Alright, I can do it now!

"Salt Spirit… Henshin! (Ka!!)"

The intense light burst into a brilliant flash. And there, an Amazoness macho futa wrapped in a white shining salt armor appeared.

[[[Baan! Baaann!]]]

"Ugh! I can't take it anymore…! (Slip)"

"Kept me waiting, huh!? Kato! Sato! (Gash!)"

"Z-Zukki-san! W-what's with that appearance!?"

"This is the Holy Salt Outfit… Seien Cross!"

""Se, Seien Cross! (Gokuri…!)""

"It's alright now; I'll scatter those zombies. Grow, my salt! Pegasus, Dragon's Roar! (Kyubabaa!!)"

[[[[Do! Bagoon!!]]]

Let me explain. Otaku regularly watches battle manga and anime, and there is never a day when I'm not devoted to researching techniques.

""T-That's not it, Zukki-saaan!""

I blew away all the zombies beyond the door, along with the barricade that Kato and Sato had diligently built with great cooperation.
