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

Wow!

"Gah!?

Baubau!

"Gah....."

Covolt's herd and villagers are fighting.

But most of the villagers didn't seem to know how to fight, so they struggled quite a bit.

In addition, new covolts were entering the village one after the other from the collapsed and perforated barrier.

As it stands, the village will be occupied by Kobolt.

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

And as if to inspire my friends, it was Kobolt who was more than two times better than the usual Kobolt who raised a loud roar.

It must be Eldercovolt, the superior species that he leads this herd.

When I first pushed into the Eldercovolt, I kicked him in the stomach.

Bang!

"~ ~ ~ ~!?

That alone ruptures the hard muscles and scatters the guts that pop out of it.

The main unit flew away at an incredible speed and disappeared outside the village, caught up with the covolts who were about to go through the holes in the barrier.

... I've gained a little too much momentum.

Looking around, not only the villagers, but even Kobolt stopped moving and looked at us with a stunned face.

"" Wow, wow!?

After a while of rigidity, Cobolt's face was distorted by fear, and he hit the hole at a glance.

Apparently, they instantly killed their leader and completely lost their game.

The covolts hurried out of the village, grasping many times that they had jumped into the hole together with me.

"Ok, you saved me...?

"Looks like it...."

"But what the hell is that gray hair..."

Naturally, everyone's attention comes to me alone.

No, please don't... I get nervous when I see so much...

There was little fear in the villagers' gaze because Eldercobolt was kicked in the stomach and beaten with a single shot.

And from their point of view, he's a complete stranger.

In the meantime, Ray's father rushed to the side.

"Thanks to you, the village has been saved! And my son... I can't thank you enough!

"Ah, I...."

Is this the trigger for the distrust? Other villagers will thank you one after the other as if they cut the weir.

"Brother, you're so strong! I can't believe you killed Eldercobolt in one blow!

"Now they'll never come to the village again!

"Maybe the famous adventurer?

I have no idea how to react to that friendly attitude, and I can only calm down.

But you can't be so happy to be thanked for this.

Ray's father says.

"Haha, apparently our benefactor is a bit familiar. You guys, leave that alone."

I, you understand...!

I shook my head unexpectedly.

Afterwards, I got a lot of favors from the villagers.

Besides, it seems to be well known that I am a stranger, and they treat me at a reasonable distance.

Thank you... thank you...

"Uncle, how can you be so strong! Tell me!

"I want to know!

"Me and me!

Well, the kids don't hesitate to swarm.

"Please stay at home tonight."

That's what the village mayor said.

The courtesy was so sweet that I had him come up to his mansion.

"Enjoy your meal."

The dishes were made by the village chief's wives and daughters with more arms.

I don't need to eat on undead, but I decided to take it.

... but sadly, it doesn't taste good at all.

Apparently, undead has no taste.

"What do you think? How's the taste?

……

I didn't know how to respond, so I kept eating.

And then he thought he liked it.

"You have plenty of wonderful food. Please eat plenty."

Still, I'm not at all hungry...

Can this body digest in the first place?

With such a doubt, I flatten all the prepared meals.

In conclusion, it seems to be digested properly.

Immediately after eating, my stomach was swollen, but it gradually came back to normal.

However, the digestion mechanism may be slightly different from that of living humans because there will be no urination or bowel movements after a long time.

◇ ◇ ◇

It's about time we got to the village.

"It's been two weeks since the request was made, right? I've already been destroyed by Kobolt....."

"Hey, don't say anything unfortunate."

My name is Bell.

Almost 35 years old, a silver-class adventurer based in Tana Kingdom, his birthplace.

The Kingdom of Tana is a small, flying country, and the Adventurer Alliance exists only in King's Landing.

Therefore, there was a chronic shortage of staff, and the completion of requests tended to be delayed at all times.

We are on our way to a rural village on the border of Tana Kingdom.

It is not geographically far from the kingdom of Romana ruled by the Hero King, but there is a vast forest between them, so it was necessary to make a major detour to get around.

Had it not been for this forest, there would have been a flourishing commute with Romana and a prosperous neighborhood around here.

It's already getting dark.

I'd like to get there by night somehow...

When I thought so, I eventually saw what they were doing.

Oh, it's a much more splendid barrier than I thought.

"Otherwise, you wouldn't be able to live here."

"That's true. Ahh, now it's not going to break like a covolt."

"Hey, why are you so sorry?"

This partner's name is Pinp.

He's a bit of a wizard, but he's certainly capable.

I'm 28 years younger than I am, and I've been partying well for years.

Then we arrived at the village, but it still seemed to be safe.

But the villagers told me something unexpected.

"Actually, I've already defeated Eldercobolt and chased the herd away."

"What? How the hell did you do that?

Thank you for helping me on my trip.

They say they once destroyed the barrier and allowed them to enter the village.

As it stood, the village was devastated... When they thought so, a gray-haired young man appeared from nowhere, instantly killing Eldercobolt, and the herd fled at a glance.

"Gray hair and red eyes? Pretty distinctive... aren't you an adventurer?

"I don't know. I'm not very good at talking."

I see.

It seems that the young man is still in this village.

If there is, I would like to meet with you and conveyed the intention, but I was told to confirm with the other party and it was put on hold.

Then we were guided to the villagers' house, where there was an empty room.

I have to stay here today.

Incidentally, in this case, we take over the contract, and the reward we can receive is not exactly full, but part of it.

Even though I came all the way here, the amount doesn't suit me.

Well, there's nothing I can do about it.

"Hmm? What's the matter, Pinp?

So I noticed something strange about my partner.

I don't think it's strange that this guy has one or two malicious behaviors that don't suit his job this time.

"... Mr. Bell, I may be mistaken..."

Don't bother telling me.

"A gray-haired red-eyed young man... maybe that's not what we're talking about right now...?

"Topic?"

I wonder what you're talking about. Pinp looked a little stupid.

"Mr. Bell, haven't you read the paper?

"You can't read things like that."

The newspaper is like a leaflet of letters, and there are a lot of recent news in it.

Few people are reading in this small country, but there are more readers overseas, mainly the wealthy.

It's too expensive to reach poor people like us, but the Adventurers Guild seems to be subscribing and was placed in Robbie so anyone could read it.

Well, I'm actually reading about some weirdos like Pinp.

"Hah... this is why brain muscle adventurers..."

"Hey, who's the brain muscle?

"Recently, it was in the newspaper... that an undead appeared in the Kingdom of Romana, which is regarded as a catastrophic... yes, gray-haired and red-eyed..."

The moment I was told that, I felt like something cold was running on my spine.
