Hundreds Years After I Was Called [Just Corpse], I’ve Become Strongest Undead When I Woke Up

"What is that...?

When I left the city to escape, I found something strange and stopped.

It is a mysterious path that begins from the city and continues far away.

Maybe the streets?

However, there is no sign of people passing through.

Unfamiliar with it, I noticed that something like two iron bars had grown a long way away.

The neighborhood is covered with crusty stones, and it looks like people are still walking spicy.

"Isn't that the street?

As you tilt your neck,

Ooooooooooo!

Suddenly, a loud noise came from the city.

I couldn't help but breathe when I saw something.

A huge black object was coming at us, spitting out a lot of smoke.

"A monster of potatoes!?

I thought so for a moment, but when I looked closely, it looked like a lump of iron.

Besides, it seems to be running on two iron bars in a row.

After a while, it passed right in front of me at great speed.

Apparently there are wheels attached to the iron nugget, and it is running in a way that meshes with the iron rod.

"What kind of principle is this huge piece of iron running at this speed...?"

Of course, there was no such thing as this when I was alive.

"Eh...."

By the time I realized it, I was already running far away.

I chase after him in a hurry.

I thought I couldn't catch up, but I caught up easily and unexpectedly.

Moving on to the beginning, where the smoke continues to emit, we now observe huge iron masses running side-by-side.

"Su... wow!

I shouted with admiration at that great power.

◇ ◇ ◇

A magic locomotive, a huge magic tool that enables long-distance travel in a short time by running on pre-laid tracks.

Common name, train.

It is now manufactured around the world and is indispensable for transporting people and goods.

But even though it is a magical instrument, it is not magic that accounts for the majority of its power.

They burn inexpensive coal to generate heat, which generates steam, and the power of that steam is used as energy to rotate the wheels.

Those called Engineering Assistants are responsible for replenishing coal while driving to generate the heat.

As the name suggests, he was an assistant to an engineer, and the two were mainly engaged in the harsh manual work in shifts.

"Hey, what are you looking at? Put the coal in quickly. The engineer will kill you again."

The other side notices that the shovel of the engine assistant who was refilling the coal has stopped.

"Hey, maybe my eyes have gone crazy... but I can see people running side-by-side on trains..."

"Ah? That's why...!?

For the first time a colleague told me to look out, the assistant saw an incredible sight.

A gray-haired young man was side-by-side with this train.

"What is he!?

"Do I look like you too...? I knew there wasn't something wrong with my eyes...."

"If you're relieved!

The engineer came rushing to them with a change of phase.

Apparently he also noticed a young man running outside.

"Put more coal in the boiler! I'm going faster now! Pull him away as soon as you can!

"Huh?

"Red eyes on that gray hair! The one in the paper this morning...! That's not human! It's undead! If they get on this train, it's over! They're gonna kill us all...!

"" Uh-uh!?

The two engineering aides twitched their faces and began a desperate coal toss.

◇ ◇ ◇

"Well, did you manage to make it in time..."

I lowered my hips tightly in the seat and breathed relief for a moment.

My whole body is full of sweat, but it might be convenient to hide it from my crotch.

I escaped by car from that horrible undead and went straight to the train station.

Luckily, he slipped into the flight just before he left.

Of course, I haven't bought tickets, but I don't care what happens later.

With the sharp whistle, the train accelerates and the city fades away.

My feelings calmed down and my head became a little cool.

"In the first place, isn't he going to come after me...?

At that time, I was upset and thought that they would chase me everywhere, but when I think about it, I don't think they would go that far to kill me alone.

Now that I've escaped that scene, may I think I've already been saved?

Of course I can't go back to that city anymore.

Much sooner than planned, but I'll have to leave the Chamber of Commerce to my son.

My life is more important.

I'll contact you when I get to King's Landing at the end of the line.

Now that there is a magic tool that can be used to communicate over a long distance, it should be able to give instructions to some extent.

At that time, the train, which was supposed to have been running at a steady speed for a while after the acceleration, suddenly started accelerating again.

In addition, passengers looked out the window and started making noise.

Whatever happened, I caught a heavy body out of the seat and looked out the window.

"~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~!?

Then there was that gray-haired undead running alongside this train at a fierce speed.

"Yah, yah, yah, did you still follow me...?!

Besides, with that creepy smile on his face, he looked at us - his eyes met.

Higuuu...

Fear reached its peak, and my consciousness dimmed.

I felt my crotch warm again and fainted.

◇ ◇ ◇

... oh no.

I didn't know people were on board.

No, it's natural to think about it.

There can't be such a huge artifact moving unattended.

Catching up to the tip of the iron nugget, I scratched a waterfall sweat there and found people doing some tough work.

He noticed me and hurried out.

That's true.

Running at this speed would be impossible for ordinary people.

Pfffffft!

A loud sound was heard again, and the iron mass began to accelerate.

I could have followed you fast enough, but I'd rather not run any further side-by-side.

I'm going to be a little late.

Then people came out of the window and got noticed.

Apparently, this huge iron mass was meant to transport people.

Far faster than a carriage, and likely able to carry a large number of people.

But because of that, a lot of people have seen it.

And when I saw their faces, I was scared and frightened without exception.

"I'm not scared...?

I tried my best to smile, but it didn't work at all.

"... hmm? That could be....."

Discover the faces you've seen in them.

This is the fat man I just met.

"I see. Maybe you were in a hurry to get on this?"

If he was so convinced, he somehow peeled off his white eyes and quickly disappeared.

Two iron bars with huge pieces of iron running.

If it is used as a means of transportation for people, we may be able to follow it to another city.

"Maybe I'm smart...?

Convinced of my assumptions, I decided to rely on this iron bar.

Not only did I stop running alongside iron nuggets, but I also stopped running.

I can still run as much as I want, but it's not a hasty journey.

Besides, it would still be safer to sneak into the city at night.

"But I can't believe I ran like that and wasn't tired at all... it's just endurance..."

I was once again stunned by my physical anomalies, and I kept walking forever.
