Night on the Seremouth Plains.

If the undead become a camp in this place where countless others exist, then naturally there is no reason to put up a tent for long periods of time and take fatigue.

Autumn is also warmed by a burning fire to overcome the deepening cold of the night, while carriages are installed around them instead of walls, and those entrusted with watching the outside are also wary of the surroundings as they warm up again with a burning fire.

Regardless of the former guerrillas, those involved were looking at the darkness frighteningly at a completely different sight from the journey they had made to this point.

Even for these people, I never thought the journey to the kingdom of Mireana would be easy.

Still, I guess you're uncomfortable with the difference today, even if you crossed the night in a village along the way or camping with a tent, until you entered the Seremouth Plains, just because you weren't so full of tension.

"I wish I could have run through the night all at once."

On the outside of the carriage, Ray shrugs as he leans against Seto's body, which, as usual, is falling asleep.

"Gru......"

I can't help it, Seto rattles my throat when I say.

If it is indeed Ray and Seto, the night is also wise.

If you're curious about that, you'll be able to fly through the sky and quickly cross the Seremus plain.

But that's only Ray and Seto's story.

Normal humans can't see their surroundings properly in this situation where the moon is hidden by clouds, even if the night is bright. If there are a few beasts, the night will work well compared to humans, but in the first place a horse can hardly be more pointless than he cannot run in this darkness.

"I knew the moon wasn't out. If it was moonlight, I might have earned a little more distance."

It was a grunting ray, but in the end, if you let them keep running without even letting them rest at night, the horse could get hurt, and even without it, the horse would be crushed by fatigue.

It may not be a problem to have a horse crumbled somewhat if it is this group of people who are not loaded like a regular merchant corps and have a small number of people on the carriage, but whether it is a carriage or a horse, it is definitely personal property.

When it came to moving to a strange place called Gilm, it was definitely not something I could do to crush property in a place like this that would help a lot there.

"Then I know this was the best way to do it..."

"Grrrrrrrr"

To Ray whining, Seto rattles his throat.

That was not because I agreed with Ray, let alone because I was sweet when I was hungry, but because of the alarm.

Hearing that chirping, Ray also rises up in his hand with the death size he had on the ground again.

Waiting, eventually approaching are the mild footsteps of Kasha, Kasha,.

Ray had already sensed what kind of monster that footsteps could be heard from.

The experience of fighting the undead is not so much in itself, but there is nevertheless combat experience in the way of dungeons headed when I first met Elaine and when I went through this Seremus plain when I headed to the Spring War, the Exil and the Bestian Empire.

And the owner of the audible footsteps had several battles among them.

Ray's eyes point their gaze at the monsters that appear, even though only the lights of the incendiary fire can be used as a light source, but also dark vision.

"I knew it was you"

The figure, made of bone, looks brittle to see.

But the bone is not a normal bone, it is more or less a fortified bone with magic.

Most importantly, it's a skeleton. It's only the lowest undead.

It would be different if this were more powerful.

"If it was at least a superior species or a rare species, it would have been possible to use Demon Stone effectively."

In a dungeon already dived with Elaine, Skeleton's Demon Stone is gaining.

The Demon Stone was absorbed in both Seto and Death Size, but neither of them gained any skills.

If you think Skeleton is a low-ranking monster, you can't do that either.

Set the death size and flash on the horizontal giraffe as you approach.

Death size through magic, that's all it takes to wrap up a few skeletons... it's also a rib with demonic stones... in human terms, it's doubled around the top of the chest, and the body is divided into two upper and lower parts.

Still undead, therefore, it will not die.

Reach for the upper part of Skeleton's severed ribs and forcibly take away the demonic stone in it.

When the Demon Stone could be pulled out of Skeleton's body... the next moment the Skeleton collapsed to the ground.

Skeleton's Demon Stone is a material as well as a crusade proof site.

You can ignore Skeleton's Demon Stone if you become a high-ranking adventurer like Ray... because you can get a corner, so you took it away.

Repeating the same thing a few times as it was, the skeletons that attacked me had wiped out the whole house.

While storing the removed demon stone into the mistering, try to get back under the ceto with the skeleton wreckage intact to get a feel equal to that superb futon again...... and then hear the metal noise heard from elsewhere.

"Has Skeleton attacked you elsewhere?... No, it's not!?

I thought the skeletons had attacked me exactly, but the metal noises I hear mix with the ones where the weapons collide with each other, as well as the sound of metal armor rubbing against each other.

And not one of those currently on watch was equipped with metal armor.

Of course that's not the absolute reason.

Maybe someone equipped with metal armor is going to help, or someone who was supposed to be on this watch, with the experience of adventurers and soldiers, pulled out metal armor.

But given the sound of metal armor in this Seremus plain where the undead existed, the first thing past the back of the brain was the living armor.

That undead, where man's resentment dwelt in armor, Ray had also fought before.

Ray's strength would not have been such a nasty opponent, but the defense of physical specialization just because the body is made of metal armor is very nasty for those who can't use magic.

"Seto, I'm on the other side..."

I'm coming.

That's what I tried to say, Ray, but that word can be stopped on the way.

Because I heard footsteps like kacha, kacha, to myself again.

"Shit, it's Skeleton again.... no!?

What emerged from the darkness was certainly a monster made of something like a man's bone, a kind of skeleton, no doubt.

But the bones that make up that body were clearly different from the skeletons of earlier.

First, that bone. Whereas the skeleton bone was white earlier, this skeleton is made up of a crystal like bone.

Whatever you think, it was a few steps above the skeleton you knocked down earlier.

(With that said, you've heard it from someone before. The Undead are overflowing on this Seremus plain, and they say they can fight each other. And the surviving undead will be a higher race or something. To put it plainly, it's worm poison.)

Ray, who somehow perceived the identity of the skeleton that appeared in front of him, looks at him with a small grin.

"When it was the Bestian Empire, it was all about fighting each other. With that in mind, it's been a long time since I've fought a new breed of monsters like this"

Death size, skeletons made of crystals… look at the person to describe even crystal skeletons.

"Gru?"

"Oh, I want this guy to be in my hands. Seto needs to go to the living room armor. Either way, someone has to stay here."

What are you gonna do? and to the throat-beating ceto, Ray answers briefly.

I guess the results are the same no matter which one of you or Seto stays on this scene, but if you are an unknown monster, it is because you decided that you should fight for yourself with the meaning of studying.

You understand Ray's thoughts, Seto runs off the spot when he rings short.

A glimpse of his partner's hindsight, Ray observes Crystal Skeleton standing in front of him with a death-size.

All of the body's bones were made up of crystals… crystals, which were also above the normal skeletons that Ray had defeated earlier in terms of standing.

Nor is the weapon in your hand like a long sword that is broken or rusted like a regular skeleton, a long sword made of crystals that Crystal Skeleton probably made with his abilities.

"It's convenient that you can build weapons with your abilities. It's just that crystal ranks too low for me."

Whether you understand Ray's whining or not, shake his jaw bones and release something like a kettle and a laugh.

I don't know if that's really a laugh, or if my jaw bones wobbled in the night breeze and it just happened to sound like a laugh.

But still, Ray recognises it would be a laugh, with a fierce grin on his mouth to counter it.

"If you have enough power to make me laugh, you're welcome... how about that? It's at least a pity. Don't use the Red Armor of the Flaming Emperor, I'll deal with him as a vegetarian. There hasn't been enough combat training here lately."

He wields the death size, flashes like slashing and tearing the night air before walking forward.

Getting closer to things like one, two, three steps… Crystal Skeleton waves a long sword made of crystals as if waiting for it.

That speed did draw a line with Skeleton.

Wield a death size at the elbow of your extended right arm while dodging a long sword blow waved at you.

Half-counter, that blow gently slashes Crystal Skeleton's right arm elbow.

"Huh?"

To an unexpected sight, Ray whines small.

The blow I just unleashed was certainly quite a sharp one, but for Ray it was only a blow to see how things were going.

No way with that blow.

That sight of being poked at the intent instantly causes the sense of anticipation that was in the ray to be lost.

(Skeletons are skeletons after all)

Let's take the Demon Stone and end it.

Trying to shake Death Size with that in mind...... The next moment I see Crystal Skeleton caught his right arm slashed in the air and slightly doubt it.

But the question was resolved in a good way at the next moment.

When the caught right arm was touched by the cutting part, the elbow part was covered by the crystal, and it stuck firmly the next moment.

"... heh"

To an unexpected sight, Ray speaks small and admirable.

I've seen monsters that regenerate scratches several times before, but I've never seen them regenerate using crystals... No, because I've never seen them repair.

It's not that you're tough, it's hard to die.

It was a joy to deal with Crystal Skeleton like that, in Ray's chest.

Because I knew empirically that in the case of such a special monster, I could definitely acquire skills from the Demon Stone.

"Besides, a body made of crystals would sell quite a bit more as a material."

Kurli, and Ray whines as he rotates the death size in his hand.

Kettle, still ringing his jaw bones, Crystal Skeleton approaches Ray with a long crystal sword.

"If you can definitely repair it with crystals, I guess a half-breed wound doesn't make sense.... but I'm stripping out my weaknesses at the point of skeleton!

Kicking the ground, Ray pushes straight towards Crystal Skeleton.

The distance disappears instantly because they are both approaching the target.

Crystal Skeleton waves a long crystal sword in an attempt to intercept the death size Ray wields.

Earlier was Ray, who unleashed a counter against that blow, but this time he stops his hand at the moment the crystal's long sword and death size hit him, so that his opponent's attack can slash and tear through the air.

I guess he expected to bump into Death Size. Crystal Skeleton upsets his body with no expected impact at all.

Where my body swam with the long sword movement of the crystal I waved...... a death-size blow swung down there again.

Krystal Skeleton, slashed and torn from around half the rib containing the demonic stone, is blown from his chest straight up into the air.

It was Ray who saw the crystal created in the cleaved part in an attempt to recover like the earlier right elbow, but he doesn't need to go along with it any more than he found out about the seed of resurrection.

Quickly get your hands from the top of the ribs that are empty and take out the demonic stones there.

When the demonic stone is removed from the body made of crystals… In the next moment, the body and sword made of crystals fall to the ground.

"... like this"

Ray turned his gaze toward Seto as he shrugged as he stowed his magic stones, crystal swords, and bone parts into the mistering.
