I Defeated the Guide Angel and I Became a Necromancer ~ I Feel Like I'm Playing a Different Game from Everyone Else, but I'm Doing Fine ~ - Chapter 83

Chapter 83: Stellavelce – Part 1: The Charge!

◆ Stellavelce – Guild House (Unauthorized Use) ◆

“This is quite different, isn’t it?”

Baldy’s comment made me look outside, but at first, I couldn’t figure out what was different. What’s wrong? I thought that was the extent of my confusion. But then I remembered the characteristics of Stellavelce and considered the current time. Then, it clicked – what was strange became apparent.

“It’s daytime, yet they’re moving…”

“Kashpa’s magic is strengthening! It seems that the magic he used to strengthen his troops is affecting the undead throughout the country, causing them to roam even during the day.”

It was daytime, but the resident undead were moving around. They were supposed to move only at night, but it seems that they’ve been affected by Kashpa’s magic that strengthened his troops. But why? Why is the alert level higher? What’s going on… Ah…

Σ(´∀｀；)！！！！

Oh…!! Oniichan, isn’t this because of the time you killed one of the soldiers? Even if you hid it in the bushes, it was only a temporary solution! You should have put the soldier’s corpse in a coffin and brought it back! Big mistake!

“Oniichan, it’s my fault for not putting it in the coffin…”

*(´；ω；｀) *

“Oh, come to think of it, we did mention that during reconnaissance…”

“Oops. No wonder we were found.”

“Ah… So you killed a soldier during reconnaissance?”

“That’s right, Napping-san… We hid the body in the bushes and left it there…”

“Well, it can’t be helped!”

“Judging by the situation, there might be defensive magic or barriers around Kashpa.”

“There’s also a spell called Counter-Missile that reacts to projectiles and reflects them. If you fire magic or projectiles carelessly, you’ll get hurt, so watch out for that.”

Ugh… More mistakes… The mistakes keep piling up. But thanks to the strategy meeting we had earlier, we won’t make a bigger mistake like firing magic or projectiles only to have them reflected and suffer a devastating loss. We need to recover from this.

“Alright, alright. They’re on high alert, but let’s go according to plan! We have to show them that there are things we can do even if they’re prepared for us.”

“Got it. Lia-chan, Chiyo-chan, let’s go! Donta and Oniichan, we’re counting on you!”

(´；ω；｀)ｂ

Woof!! (We’ll do our best!)

“Let’s go! Luna!”

Aurelia has summoned the familiar, Luna, Luna, The Black Cat

Meowwww…

“O- oh… Is the Black Cat really going to be needed in this round?”

“…I might have gotten a bit chubby!”

Wait, Lia-chan, that’s not just chubby. It’s definitely a case of being full of dignity. This has to be because of the cat ears you got, right? The Cat-like Skills must be up to no good! I tried to ask by making eye contact, but she gave me a wink♡ and brushed it off. That’s cheating… You’re cheating, Lia-chan. When did you turn into such a bad girl?

“Alright, I’ll make a path. We’re going for a direct attack, so let’s go in boldly!”

*Rage has unleashed the Sword Demon’s Wave, activating overwhelming pressure. Lower-level monsters become Stunned. *

“Your strength has increased since the last time! How is your seal technique progressing?”

“I’ve only managed to create the Heaven-Earth-Overturning, Meteor. I’m still behind on that one.”

“Is that so! Two techniques in such a short time. It’s a testament to your hard work!”

“You’re praising me so much. Praise won’t get me anywhere!”

“Your fighting spirit is strong!”

“O- oh… You’re right!”

Rage-san has gotten so strong that even Chiyo-chan is praising him… Wow, that Sword Demon’s Wave is amazing… It’s stunning the resident undead, and they’re running away. Now we don’t have to worry about undead bothering us on our way to the palace!

Ah, Rage-san is so lucky. I want Chiyo-chan to praise me too. Okay, that’s it! I’m going to do my best and get praised by everyone this time! I’m going to do that!

◆ Stellavelce – Palace, Second Floor ◆

“Gwi schizodus(Death through scorch)!! Anehra(Extinction befalls)!!!! Ah…!!!”

Aurelia used [Incendiary Extinction]

Weak!!! Dealt 997,557 damage to Snake God Soldier (Lv. 80)

Weak!!! Dealt 1,005,004 damage to Snake God Soldier (Lv. 80), defeating it. Gained 800,000 experience points.

Coffined Snake God Soldier (Lv. 80) in the Corpse Storage – 5.

Weak!!! Snake God Soldier —

— The inside of the palace was in worse condition than we imagined. Before, there were only soldiers like regular infantrymen, with proper names. Now, all of them have snake heads and bodies covered in snake scales. They’re like snake-human hybrids. They’re also zombies, it seems, and they all lack vitality. They just leap at you without any will, creepy soldiers everywhere.

“Perforate, Curse Spear!!”

Miss… Could not inflict damage on Snake God Soldier (Lv. 80). It is either an undead or a death-type monster.

“Undead or death-type monster!”

“Undead, huh? Burning them is the quickest way to deal with them.”

“This ghastly stench… Are they truly of the death type?”

CAAAARRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!

*Mourning Banshee (Lv. 75) has activated Crash Scream. *

Princess Chiyo has entered the Berserker Mode – Weak state.

“GAHAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!! GHOST, GHOST, GHOST, GHOST, GHOST, GHOST, GHOST!!!”

Rage has activated One Sword Severing Iron, Resist… Dealt 481,119 damage to Mourning Banshee (Lv. 75), defeating it. Gained 750,000 experience points.

“What ghost?! Master, slashing them is the same for ghosts and monsters!”

“I- I just can’t stand ghosts… They’re transparent…!”

Ah… Chiyo-chan hates that one… It’s probably one of the female resident NPCs that were brought to the palace. We can’t afford to just stand by and watch as even strong resident NPCs attack us. I’m sorry, but I’ll have to take it down. By the way, even though it said Resist, Rage-san dealt 481k damage! Y- you’re crazy! That’s incredible power…

“Curse, applaud, and embrace death. Here, the forbidden curse.”

Mitchell has activated Forbidden Curse.

STR, AGI increase by 170 permanently until canceled. Base attack increases by +1,000. Attack power increases by 1.3 times. HP decreases by 0.3% per second.

“AAAAAH, I can’t take it anymore!! Kihh…!! BATTLE!!!”

Tsukune☆ has activated ★Overkill!!! Attack power increases by 2 times, damage received increases by 2 times.

T- Tsukune-san?! What kind of crazy self-buff skill is that?! She’s holding both axes with one hand — NBig sis had one axe in each hand, but Tsukune-san is using only one!

“Kill, kill, kill, kill…!!!”

*Tsukune☆ has activated Cartwheel!

“Oh, yeah, that’s the one. It’s crazy! Amazing!”

“No, we’re going to get caught in it if we stay close!”

“Hm… She’s even more dangerous than Tornado…!”

Princess Chiyo’s Berserker Mode – Weak has been canceled.

Ah, this is bad. Tsukune-san flips a switch when she enters combat. She’s not even aware of friend or foe. She just swings her great axes over and over and over until the enemy dies. She’s a berserker who cuts everything to shreds!

Snake God Soldier (Lv. 80) received Cartwheel, all equipment shattered! Took 1,301,109 damage and died. Gained 800,000 experience points.

Tsukune☆ entered the Exhilarated – 1 state. Attack power increased by 1.1 times, damage received decreased by 5%, HP recovers by 0.5% per second.

“DIEEEEEE!!!”

Tsukune☆ entered the Exhilarated – 2 state. Attack power increased by 1.2 times, damage received decreased by 10%, HP recovers by 1.0% per second.

“Ahahahaaaah♡ Ahahahahahaha! AHHHHHHHHHHH, Ahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!”

“Ah… She’s fully switched on now. Looks like she’s having fun, Tsukune-chan.”

“Execution by fire. Burn them all.”

Mitchell has changed Tsukune☆’s attack attribute to Fire Attribute.

Tsukune-san is turning the Snake God Soldiers into Tsukune one after another… Scary… By the way, Mitchell-san did that so nonchalantly. Now Tsukune-san has become a Tsukune production machine.

“Let’s leave the enemies here to Tsukune-san.”

“Leave it to her, huh? I don’t think I can get close!”

“Hm… I’ve caught up. I’ll take a position at the stairs on the second floor… What’s that?”

“Ooh, that’s a one-handed axe, isn’t it? It looks like a two-handed axe to Eris-chan!”

“It’s a one-handed axe because she’s holding it with one hand. Alright, Lia-chan, one more shot. Burn the first floor again. They keep appearing, it’s never-ending.”

“Gwi schizodus(Death through scorch)!! Anehra(Extinction befalls)!!!! Ah…!!!”

“Aurelia used [Incendiary Extinction]”

Weak!!! Dealt 1,466,551 damage to Snake God Soldier (Lv. 80), defeating it. Gained 800,000 experience points.

Weak!!! Dealt 1,505,007 damage to Snake God Soldier (Lv. 80), defeating it. Gained 800,000 experience points.

Coffined Snake God Soldier (Lv. 80) in the Corpse Storage – 6.

Coffined Snake God Soldier (Lv. 80) in the Corpse Storage – 7.

Rena-chan and the others have joined us. There are too many enemies on the first floor, so they’re going to take a position at the stairs and use the terrain to their advantage. Wow, I just saw, they keep coming out of that sea of fire, one after another, those Snake God Soldiers… I wonder if Rena-chan and the others will be okay…

“GAHAAAAOOOHHH!!!!!”

Tsukune☆ has activated Flattened! Dealt 1,511,791 damage to Snake God Soldier, defeating it. Gained 800,000 experience points.

Tsukune☆ entered the Exhilarated – 5 state. Attack power increased by 1.5 times, damage received decreased by 25%, HP recovers by 2.5% per second.

ヾ(´∀｀)ノ

Frioniel has activated Dark Aspiration, all party members have been fully recovered.

Woof!! (I’ll take care of this! Go ahead!)

“Wow! Thanks, Oniichan! Donta, be careful!”

(｀・ω・´)ｂ

Woof!!

No, no, let’s trust Rena-chan and the others to handle this! Pers-chan is already in the middle of a chaotic battle on the first floor (I can hear his maniacal laughter), so we’re going to move on!

“I can feel Kashpa’s magic in the depths! He’s definitely there!”

“Alright, check your buffs and everything else.”

“Alright! Let’s go!”

Mitchell has activated Enemy Search.

Rage has activated Heaven-Earth-Overturning , the next attack skill used will be enhanced.

Princess Chiyo has activated One Against a Thousand, the next attack skill used will be significantly enhanced.

“Tsukune-chaaaaaaan!! We’re going to the boss room!”

“Bo-osss…? Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go! Kill, kill, kill!!!”

“If he’s in there… The number of monsters displayed is really high. He’s surrounded by many guards.”

“Ah, hmmm… So, Tsukune-chaaan, stop!!”

“GAHAAOOOHHHH!!!! Sto-op…? I want to crush enemies, crush enemies, crush enemies, crush enemies, crush enemies NOW, NOW, NOW!!!”

Tsukune-chan’s murderous intent is too high… I totally get why her class name is Overkill, but… She’s not completely berserk, she can still hear us…

“Alright, alright, let’s greet him first. See, greetings are important, right? I believe that regardless of the form, greetings are important.”

“…Cover your ears and keep your mouth shut!”

“Eh? Ah, —”

“I see. Greetings, you say? Deploying Destroy Hurricane Cleaner.”

Mitchell has activated Destroy Hurricane Cleaner, dealt 1 damage to Snake God Kashpa (Lv. 200).

Mitchell received 1 damage from reflected damage.

All auxiliary magic on Snake God Kashpa (Lv. 200) has been dispelled.

Dealt 1 damage to Elite Snake God Soldier (Lv. 100) —

…

…

…

All auxiliary magic on Elite Snake God Soldier Captain (Lv. 120) has been dispelled.

Wow, Mitchell-san charged in! Wait, what? There’s someone even more dangerous than Tsukune-chan next to me. Napping-san, the giant barrel you’re carrying on your shoulder… Is it… Is it maybe… That legendary one that blew up an opposing guild’s guild house…? That one…?! Woah! Cover your ears, close your —

“Mi-chan, NOOOO!!! Hellooooo! Kashpa-saaan! Greetings from the Dreamscape Utopia guild! Here’s a deliveryyyy!”

What is it, you —

Wait, could this be a chance to deal huge damage first? Now that all the auxiliary magic has been dispelled and it won’t reflect, if we combine Napping-san’s and mine… It’ll be an artistic explosion, right? It’ll be amazing!
