Kuishinbo Elf Chapter 46

Here’s chapter 46. A bunch of Resident Evil reference, but since I’ve never played any of them so I might get the references wrong. And btw Konko is in charge of chapter 45.

46th Meal Glowing Rare Beast

Biooooooo Hazarddddddddd! Ouch! (T.N. Took me way too long to realize that this says Bio Hazard.)

Yes, thank you! The white rare beast is running though!

Hey, hey, move out, move out of the way!

Currently, we are being chased around by some extremely stinky people.

Why did it became such a thing?

Let's recall it … … it is about 120 million years ago from now.

No, wait. It isn't something that long ago.

Let's calm down a bit.

Um … let's see … was it about 15 minutes ago?

"There isn't anything, should we leave soon?"

"I have to say that I quite agree with that."

Rioto, who was walking in the front was already getting bored.

It can't be helped.

It is dusty and smelly here, it was just unpleasant.

After walking around, there were a few rooms that we wasn't able to enter, but it is fine to say that we've walked in a full circle. Currently we're on the second floor, we've came to the front of the room that we think is the largest.

There wasn't any surprising event.

It is normal that the children got bored.

In fact, nothing had happened, so everyone is completely careless.

“Well then, after we open this and look inside, should we go back?”

Rioto puts his hand on the nearly broken door k.n.o.b.

However, it was around that time.

To my ears, whose concentration was broken due to the carelessness, a strange sound was heard.

A watery sound that was heard after something was dragged.

It was a sound that I had heard somewhere.

Moreover, it was something creepy … … ah, I remembered!

“Rioto! Do not open that door!”

“Eh?”

This is a sound that I know well.

Because it sounds like the footsteps of monsters that appears in video games.

Not, it is exactly the same.

"Return the doork.n.o.b that had been turned back to its original position and slowly leave from where you were standing … … "

"O, okay, slowly?"

Rioto slowly moved the doork.n.o.b back to its original position …

Wait, that speed isn't something that I can say is slowly, your definition of slow is strange.

Besides that, just now there was a baki* sound! ?

"Okay, I've returned it to the original position. Well, should we go back to the beach?"

When Rioto looked back and smiled at us, the door slowly opened will creaking.

As expected, the doork.n.o.b was destroyed at that time.

“~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!!”

Everyone except Rioto, screamed without a voice.

They are standing in the room like ghosts and is staring at us enviously with their muddy eyes. A ma.s.sive amount of moving corpse.

A lot of time had probably pa.s.sed since their death.

Their skin had rotted and maggots were crawling out of the openings.

The exposed white bones are creepy.

Because there are flesh still attached, they’re is more creepy than skeletons.

Their true ident.i.ties are "Zombies."

"Rioto! Behind you!"

In response to the voice of Ganzurok, Rioto avoided the zombie's attack by a hair's breadth.

“Wh, what! What are they !?”

"They are zombies! Linda, please refrain from using fire attack magics as we won't be able to escape! Counter with light attribute or wind attribute …… Linda?"

Folbert gave out instructions while staying calm, but the important Linda …

“Abababababababababa.”

Like this, she was completely in a confused state.

Since right now it is an emergency, I can't let you stay in that state forever.

We have to quickly reboot her! (T.N. Actually says restart, but why not reboot.)

“You b.a.s.t.a.r.d !!”

Gucha* I heard a disgusting sound and a scream.

Sure enough, Rioto had punched the zombie with his bare hands.

The head of the zombie was blown off and hit the wall.

It shattered and the insides scattered all over the place.

Apparently over time, the zombie's body had became brittle, but the problem is their number.

I don't know how many was squeezed into the narrow room, but there are about thirty bodies roughly counting.

It makes me want to retort asking if they're salarymen riding a crowded train.

“Uee ~, It stinks ~~~~ !!”

Rioto is defeating zombies while being covered in various things is beginning to struggle from the amount of zombies there are.

"…… There are too many of them. For now, let's pull back for now and engage them at the entrance hall."

"Oi, did you heard it! ? The entrance hall! You guys, go ahead! !"

Hulitia evaluated the situation and Ganzurok sent the instructions towards us in the rear guard.

Rioto is trying his best to fight off the zombies, but at this rate, we'll be crushed by their number.

“… …. Ganzurok, lend me a weapon.”

“Oh, use this!”

Ganzurok took out a splendid sword from 「Storage」and handed it to Hulitia.

She received the sword and bravely faced the zombies.

"Linda! Pull yourself together, we're withdrawing!"

Without responding to Folbert's words, Linda continued to tremble.

There won't be an end like this! During a time like this … do this!"

“Fumyu!”

I stretched Linda's cheeks with both of my hands.

Here, here, a weird face~!

As a result, Linda who was in a state of confusion was rebooted.

This should be fine now.

"Linda, the stinky things are coming so we're running … … "

"El-chan, don't start running away before you finish what you're saying!"

Linda was rebooted so we headed for the entrance hall.

Rioto, Ganzurok, and Hulitia remaind to stall the zombies.

The entrance hall that we were heading for was already crowded with stinky people.

The is a nightmare-like sight. And it smells.

“Why are there this many zombies …?”

Folbert showed a doubtful expression from this scene.

And I hid my face from the bad smell. Anyways, it smells.

I have to do something about the smell that had acc.u.mulated in this s.p.a.ce.

That's right, let’s open the window.

That way, it will be a bit more bearable.

Hmm? Window …… ? There was that hand!

"Hey, can't we escape though the windows?"

“Well … the windows doesn't open.”

Folbert tries to cut the window with his iron sword, but it was prevented by an invisible power.

I also reached for the window … but my height is too short and I can't reach it. G.o.d d.a.m.n.

"The appearance timing of the zombies are weird. And the door where the zombies sprang out of should've been locked and not opened … … I feel like this is something that is a work of a person."

“d.a.m.n, what do we do?  Should we regroup with Rioto and co. and try to breakthrough from the front? “

While Folbert and Danan were talking, a zombie had noticed us.

As it raised a low groan voice and comes towards us, the other zombies also started moving one after another accordingly and finally they pushed towards us like an avalanche.

It is exactly a zombie avalanche.

"Hm! ? We were noticed, please escape!"

"E, even if you say escape … … where do we run to?"

“Scatter and run away!”

"Oii! Scattering is an annihilation flag! !"

Because of the sudden event Linda and Danan entered a panic state and is running away while scattering.

I have to run away too, but my speed is too slow and I don't have much physical strength.

My usual activity as a healer is coming back at me right now.

I am so slow that …… I can't laugh about it.

The hand of the zombie is coming closer to me.

At this rate, I'll be finished! It can't be helped …… Should I blow up! ?

“Eltina, run! 「Wind Ball」!”

Folbert shot a basic wind attack magic 「Wind Ball」at the horde of zombies and successfully stopped the zombies' movement. However, it only lasted momentarily and the zombies started their invasion again.

Folbert who had produced that moment started to run while carrying me.

“Oh …… My kindred-spirit! !”

"You'll bite your tongue if you talk! Please hold on tight!" (T.N. And that is why Eltina said ouch in the beginning. She bit her tongue.)

… And thus the story goes back to the beginning.

“Haha …… weren't we able to scatter them well?”

"For now it is okay. Where exactly is this place?"

We were desperately running away from the horde of zombies, so we don't know where we pa.s.sed by and where we are.

One of the reason that we aren't able to grasp our current location would be that the doors that weren't able to be open before were opened.

After we've calmed down and look around the room, it seems to be a study used by an individual. Is it because someone was using it until recently, but it is a beautiful room …… apart from the few bloodstains here and there.

"Apparently this is a study. If I calmly look around, it seems to be full of blood. What had happened here?"

"It seems to be so. From the dryness of the blood …… whatever had happened, had happened a considerable amount of time ago.."

While praying that the zombies would not invade, we decided to take a short break.

In the meantime, we should discuss what to do now.

“Now then … how should we act now?”

"First of all, we should meet up with everyone. After that, we should escape from the building. What we two can do is limited. I think that cooperating with everyone is the most effective method."

And there is one more thing to do.

It is to gather evidence about this building and report it to the king.

The existence of this building will never be permitted.

It doesn't look like it was something that occurred naturally.

Alright, this will make a good reason!

Alp-ossan-sensei wouldn't get angry.

……Maybe.

Exploring the library.

“Eltina, this … …”

What Folbert brought me was a diary that is painted in blood.

I hope that something that can be used as evidence is written in it.

Books like this one are important items in certain video games.

Let's read it thoroughly.

Let's see …… what's in it?

Ununu, there are too many parts that are covered by blood and can't be read.

Can't be helped, let's read the part that can be read.

"Today from the headquarters … … grave … … will … start the experime … … target …… to the residents of the mansion … … lockout …"

Although it was fragmentary, I was able to grasp the content.

Or rather, it is the same information from a certain game.

I then turned the page of the diary.

"I was deceived! Not only the inhabitants, but also us …… My hands are …! Ah! My body! !"

I turn over to the next page.

“… … Itch ………… Numencha”

……….

“What is numencha? !”

I slammed the diary that is painted in blood onto the floor.

If you're going to write, write to the end! !

“Vaa … …!”

A closet nearby opened vigorously and a single zombie came out.

There are so many cliches that I don't even know how to react any more.

Ah, no more …… I don't even care anymore.

Folbert-san, please do it.

Hyun! …… Dosa.

The pitiful zombie was made into two by Folbert's iron sword.

"Fuu, it was sudden so I was surprised. You didn't appear to be surprise though?"

"Towards my well-trained mind, this doesn’t even work on me."

"Is that so?" Folbert said while being impressed. But aren't I in trouble right now since there aren't any retorts? (Confused)

When I observed the zombie that had stopped moving, I remembered its clothings.

It is the clothings of a researcher of a certain video game.

This is already destroying the world's setting. That is because this is a fantasy world. Don't mix it with a game where you kill zombies with firearms.

I will definitely not forgive the person that did such a thing.

I'll make you receive your punishment.

"Although one by one they're weak, we can't deal with their number."

"That's right … … should I just go boom with all of them?"

“That is … …”

While saying that, Folbert thought about something.

And as if he thought of a strange idea, he asked me to use a magic that I had.

That magic is … …

“So brighttt.”

It is light attribute special magic, 「s.h.i.+ning Ball」.

However, my magic never activates normally.

It became an useless magic where light is constantly being released with me being the center.

Originally, it is a magic where you throw light b.a.l.l.s to attack and demonstrates a tremendous power against undeads. In exchange, it is a magic that has no effect on living beings.

I am using it right now, but because it is too bright, I can't keep my eyes open. Therefore, Folbert came up with the strategy where he holds my hand and leads me while I keep my eyes closed.

The effect was tremendous.

“Va … …”

Ju … …!

“Va … …”

Ju … …!

What is this s.h.i.+tty game. It's so boring.

And I started to think of such a thing.

I glow, zombies come, they become ashes, and that is it.

However, 「s.h.i.+ning Ball」being effective means that they didn't rot while they were alive, but they somehow became undeads after death.

"This is amazing. It'll be a trump card against undeads."

"I'd like to be able to open my eyes soon."

The flaw is that I can't open my eyes became I'm too bright.

It'd be very dangerous if anything other than an undead comes.

I would have to rely on my eyes and maximize the alert level.

Pikopiko* …… Clear! (Safety) (T.N. Sound of ears moving. Remember, she have large floppy ears.)

The search continued as I wish to go home early and eat dinner.
