The Death Mage Who Doesn’t Want a Fourth Time

Episode 31: Force White. What is resting?

Vandalu was wrapped in warmth, as tiredness disappeared just by soaking.

Close your eyelids, extend your limbs and relax with all your might.

Bathing like this was already more than two decades ago, but I thought I was once a Japanese too.

"Is it your first time in decades to stretch your limbs and soak in a bathtub? Since I was a child on earth?

While asking her self-questioning questions, Vandaloo remembered after she knew that there was an imperfect resuscitation device under the Royal Castle.

First, we prepared a new arm for Volks. Fragments of Volks's own bones, which had been crumbled and rolled during the audience, were collected by Golem Training and shaped. After that, the magic is played with the image of playing back after being attached to the shoulder of Volks.

Then, the meat spread out from Volks' shoulders and his arm healed!

"Wow, I feel sick!

It was a little reaction.

Apparently, it is possible to cure not only the bones that make up the bones' bodies, but also the flesh and skin, using death attribute magic. Let's call this [Cath].

But the right half of Volks' face did not heal. After all, the image is important for magic, and the face of Volks may not have healed because the half-skull state was impressive.

"I don't know what the theory is, but I care. The right eye looks like a habit with no eyeballs.

And this one looks more like a guy?

"surely"

"Ursae! I told this kid!

Immediately agreed with Nuaza and a little angry, Volks was very pleased. I am glad that my right arm is back and I can fight as before.

Vandalou was a bit shocked to know that there was really a "people who could be bad" like Volks.

Until now, there was only "people and bad people." This means that you may have some tolerance if you meet a sullen person after entering the Orbaum Kingdom. …… not enough to assume that you are an enemy and attack reflexively.

Then we checked the remaining magic items and supplies in Tarosheim.

He had no intention of defeating the mid-underground dragon golem even if he cured Volks' arm, and he was even more likely to be killed.

Really important things are brought out when the first princesses evacuate, almost everything else that is also noticeable is taken away to Milg shield country, legendary class and advanced magic items that were national treasures remain I didn't.

"All that remains is a fifth-grade potion and low-end magic items that you can get anywhere. Well, if it's still there, is it mostly rot or rust?"

"Well, 200 years have passed."

The rest are worn by the giant undead, but they don't mind giving them out.

"How to get in the dungeon? Did anyone enter after death? If, intermediate magic items should be rolling in the D-class dungeon.

Well, what about the adventurer's guild?

The Adventurer's Guild has plenty of potions in case of emergencies. Some of the potions could temporarily boost your stats, but Nuaza shook his head.

"At that time, the adventurer's guild had a fight with foreign enemies who remained in this Tarosheim and shared their destiny with the enemy.

Potions have been used up and magic items have been taken away. Is it safe for a job change room? "

"What?-Now?"

"Chill, Mon is overpowered ... I wish I had more alcohol."

"I can afford some now, because they are also undead."

"That's right! I've forgotten because I've been in the Royal Castle for two hundred years! Pia, but there's no tavern? "

"Haha, that was also the case."

"Is it true that you can use a guild job change room?"

Job change rooms installed at branches of various guilds are facilities that are always present in human society. Whether it's the Amid empire, the elected Orbaum or the Talosheim, it's the same.

So the Milg Shield seemed to have left it without any effort to break it. In fact, undead Volks and Nuazs are no longer humans but demons. It was useless because I could not change jobs.

"It can be used by me and all of Ghoul."

However, it is good news for Vandaloo and the ghouls who have not been able to use the job change room because they have entered human society.

To be precise, good news for the ghouls. Although treated socially as demons, they are actually a new race of Vida. So you can get a job. Evidence suggests that ex-humans Talea and Katya are ghouling with their jobs as humans.

Both Vigaro and Zadiris have honed their skills without ever getting a job. If the ghouls get a job and can benefit from stats and skill corrections, it will be a significant boost.

In the case of Vandaloo, it is more likely that they will not be able to change jobs even if they can use the room because they have received the curse of disabling existing jobs from Rodcorte.

However, I always wanted to do it. The possibilities are not zero.

So Vandalou returned to everyone with a momentary step to share this good news, but it was a shock notice that awaited him.

"The boy orders rest until his birthday."

Zadiris, who thought he would not hear even if he said he was going to take a break, consulted with everyone and told Vandaluoo to take a break.

"No, but resuscitation equipment, job change"

"If you fall before that, there will be no ex-child or child!

"That's right! It is a terminal symptom!

"Because you want to rest, Vandaloo! If you don't take a break, I'll be returning to the circle of mothers!

He didn't have any ears to listen.

When they were worried how to rest Vandaloo, when he looked out of the window, he approached with a vain appearance as usual and a creepy way of running that he had never seen before Can be seen, "Dear! I need to rest now! ].

Apparently, Vandalu has no skipping talent.

However, it's always a matter of having the eyes of a dead fish, so don't panic. The defense did not change the forced rest.

I was crying to take a break because I asked, and I couldn't refute.

Well, the job change room doesn't escape, and it doesn't seem like you're going to be able to defeat that dragon golem just because you've changed your job, so it might be good to build your energies for 10 days before your birthday.

And I'm not forced to rest without doing anything. To keep my mind, I practice alchemy for up to an hour a day, and do many other rests.

For example, repairing this public bath.

There was a public bath in Tarosheim. Thanks to Zaccato, the Tarosheim giants are very bath lovers, there are five public baths in the town, and there is a big bath in the Royal Castle.

It is not a cypress bath, but a stone bath like the ancient Roman Thermae, and the sauna was Western instead of Japanese.

The violent Milg Shield had no time to destroy public baths that were neither temples nor defensive facilities, and were not heavily devastated. There were some magic items and some money to make a kind of fire, but the luggage would have been more valuable.

However, since it had been abandoned for two hundred years, when Vandaloo saw it, everything seemed dismal, including the baths at the Royal Castle.

Of the five baths in the town, three outside were collapsed by trees that were swallowed by the maju and grown, and one in the center was turned into a pile of rubble whether it was hit by the bullet of attack magic .

One thing that was safe was that mushrooms had grown in large numbers. Moreover, it was not just a mushroom, but a walking mash with limbs and a poison mash that produced toxic spores.

It wasn't such a strong monster, so if you knocked it down and baked it, it was delicious. The walking mash is crunchy and lingering. Is Poison Mush a Shiitake mushroom?

As a result, we decided to repair the bath at Ojo. Well, here too, the bath tub turned into a pond due to rain leaks, and some skeletons were immersed inside and I was doing "Good water ~". Giant races seem to like quite a lot of bathing enthusiasts, even if they are undead.

[Golem Training] Cleans and cleans leaks and cracks in walls and tiles. Then, as expected, a strong giant royal castle. After just two hundred years, the baths became available again.

Ghouls, who have never been bathed before, like the bathing culture of hot water, and are now lining up every day to get tired at the baths at Ojo.

"If you don't fix the other baths after the holidays, you won't get punctured, no matter how large the Ojo baths are.

It was just a shower at the origin, so it feels good ...

At the same time as I heard someone screaming, someone grabbed Vandaloo's head and was pulled out of Zaban and the water.

"Vandaloo! Did you drown !?"

"No, I just warmed my head to the hot water."

Rabbits were common in the public baths used by other races from the Orbaum sect, and the baths in the royal castle baths dedicated to the giants were deep.

Even a woman is a bathtub used by a giant of about two and a half meters, so even if she is a three-year-old Vandaloo, she will sink into the hot water even if she is standing.

Well, when repaired, I made a step in the bath tub so that there was a shallow part where my head could come out, so I should not drown unless careless or intentional. In the case of Vandaloo, it is intentional.

"Soak in the hot water to the brain and think about counting a hundred."

"I'm going to die!"

"No, no problem, up to five minutes"

[Condition Abnormality] Thanks to the skill, there is more than 5 minutes to suffocate. With Death Magic, you can get more time from suffocation to death.

"Stop it, I'm scared to see. What if my heart stops?"

"Yes"

Diving bathing law ban, issuance.

After taking a bath, Vandaloo was deeply worried.

"Now, how can we rest?"

There are still days before my birthday. In the meantime, how to rest.

Sleeping all day is unhealthy, and eating all day is outrageous. He stares at the void and ponders .... No hobbies.

When I recall how I was killing my time, I felt that if I was doing something, time had passed by some time.

Practice non-attribute magic and alchemy, make sauce with walnuts and herbs, make acorn powder, polish bone monkeys. While we were at the jungle, the time had passed.

But now he is on vacation, so he has stopped doing that.

So, I'm thinking of trying to kill time with entertainment, but when I think about it, I realize that there isn't much entertainment.

Right now, there are no gaming machines, personal computers, televisions, or mobile phones at hand in Vandalu. Second, there are no toys or board games that would be in this world. …… No, when I think about it, there are quite a few things that I haven't had since I was on Earth.

Living in a ghoul settlement that had lived in the underworld of underpowered gluttony, there was no room for such entertainment to develop. Despite stripping items from the corpses of adventurers entering the Makai, no one likes bringing toys or board games to the dangerous Makai.

…… There were several books, but it was a practical book describing the ecology and dismantling of magical monsters, and I have read them many times.

There are still some of the books robbed by bandits before reaching the Makai, but they are also read over and over again in utility books.

"Speaking of which, what entertainment do people in this world usually enjoy?

He told me he was interested in ex-adventurer Katya and Nuaza, who remembers well before he died.

"Amusement other than board games and reading? Well, drinking, watching a play in the theater, performing arts of street performers? If you were in the upper class, a concert ... Oh, listening to a bard song.

After all it's shopping. "

What Kachia taught was the general entertainment of the common people of the Milg Shield and the typical entertainment of the upper class. But in today's Tarosheim, the amphitheater has become a monster's nest, street performers are busy picking up their bones, and there are no musical instrument players or minstrels in the first place.

"If it's something other than the ones listed by Katya, would it be gambling to sing a song or bet on a coin toss? Back then, would you pray to God in the temple?"

I don't think Nuaza last said it was entertainment.

By the way, Vandalou will wait for his alcohol and gambling to mature. Vandalou has self-analyzed that he is not suitable for gambling because he has a tendency to become hot against his appearance, and drinking alcohol with his current body can only train his [condition abnormal tolerance] skill.

"Um, then ..."

"Let's play with us today."

"e?"

"It's good because it's good"

Later on, the day was spent teaching former adventurers of the Kachians about the adventurer's guild, and on the other hand, Vandaloo taught them Janken.

After that, he watched the builders and the life dead, practiced alchemy, and ended the day.

At this time, Janken, whom Vandaloo taught the Katyas, spread from them to Tarosheim in the blink of an eye, and eventually to the entire continent of Bang Gaia.

The next day, Vandaloo visited Black Goblins, Anubis and Orcas for entertainment.

Before going to bed yesterday, he came up with the idea, "Yes, let's play with each other if we have time."

Fast-growing they are already taller than Vandaloo, but are among the few minors currently in the community.

I'm sure she'll be playing in chase and hide-and-seek, and she'll be able to join her.

I had no friends on Earth because my uncle was suspicious at that time. This is a good opportunity to forget lonely boyhood.

…… I'm going to break my heart if I refuse.

It was fun to talk with Katya, but playing with children is another.

"Okay, I use daggers like this!

"Aim well at the target!

"This is a martial art [brain beat]. If you decide, you can crush any stone head with its contents, but watch out for the gap!"

I thought everyone was seriously training.

They will have to be trained and strengthened since childhood, as they will eventually have to hunt for their own and their fellow villagers at the Maju.

They look harsh, but they are very fortunate given the ecology and culture of other demons.

Demons, such as goblins and Kobolts, do little to educate children. It only teaches the minimum rules such as not to go against the boss in order to maintain the herd at best.

Basically, it is an educational policy that says, "Let's see or learn skills and knowledge, or get your own.

Goblins and Kobolts are highly fertile and give birth to many children in a short period of time. So even if about two-thirds die, one-third will be well-balanced if it matures.

Therefore, it is sufficient that only individuals who have the wisdom and luck to obtain food and make weapons themselves survive.

We do not intend to spend any effort to educate inferior individuals with time and effort.

In the case of orcs, though, many individuals only have the intelligence to use tools.

The idea of Buggan, where the orcs spread their weapons, is only possible because of the superior species, including the Noble Oak.

It is here that you are provided with training gear and you can learn the basics of physical fitness and martial arts from ghouls and giant undead. If you have magic skills, you can learn even magic.

If you grow up, you will be provided with high quality demon material weapons made by Talea. Compared to ordinary monsters, it is an exceptional situation.

"Sazagan, Ku. Sanshi, 12"

"Ladders, 20. White, 20"

The orcas were practicing multiplication tables. Surprisingly, all tribes that live as demons like ghouls could do arithmetic. At least the basics of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division were perfect.

Because it is necessary for calculating life force and magic power. How much damage you can endure with your life force, how many times you can cast magic with this magic power, and whether you can use martial arts. If you can't do that, you won't survive.

So I naturally taught Orus.

By the way, the multiplication tables were spread by Guangdal by Vandaloo. He knew that Ghoul would not learn and would all learn in human society, but he was surprised to hear from the Katsians that at least people on this continent did not know the 99 tables.

Apparently, the Zachato heroes did not spread all knowledge of another world when summoned. Well, at that time, he had a fierce war with the Demon King, so he probably couldn't afford to be a child.

Bellwood, who bravely opposed the spread and settling of the earth's knowledge and culture in Lambda, would not have been so far out of sight as to take care of those who knew Janken and the multiplication tables.

"Hmm? Is it even free time, boy?"

Zadiris, who taught letters on a clay plate instead of a notebook, noticed that the class was over and approached him.

"I need to say, I don't need any help. This Clay Golem is enough."

The clay golem pointed to by Zadiris is the clay plate she and her students use.

In Lambda, paper is a luxury item, and Western parchment made of sheep skin can not be easily obtained or produced in Ghoul, who lived primitively at the Makai, or in Tarosheim, which was an undead group. .

Vandaloo also tried to make fiber from the right plants, but he just found out that it was impossible to make paper with Golem training. I'll try again if my skill level goes up.

So I dug the ground and made the clay I got into a clay golem and used it as a notebook. Instead of using a wooden stick as a pen, engrave the letters on the clay plate, and when it is full, tell the golem a word to knead yourself and return to the flat plate.

I wondered if I could make pottery using this technology in the future, but if I wanted to use it myself, I would have to stick to the quality of the pottery to make it possible to sell it. I realized that I had to assemble a kiln for firing, so I haven't changed anything.

He also made pottery in Talosheim, but only one master had been destroyed by a demon after undead, and only a son who fled to the elected kingdom with his first princess, while still immature.

"No, I wasn't going to play with each other."

"Children?"

"Yes, children."

"Well then, we have to wait a little longer. So, why not play with me in a board game?"

"Board game?"

"Um, I'm covered with dust in the corner of the royal castle playroom."

The lambda's board game is said to be an entertainment for upper class and intellectuals. The number of pieces is large and the rules are difficult, so it is not very enjoyable for ordinary people.

"Well, the board was so heavy that it couldn't be moved. Everything had fifty pieces, and the player would pick eleven from it."

Talosheim's board game was no exception.

"Do you already remember the rules?"

"No, I'm not too free."

Apparently, I'm going to learn while playing. Did the manual be found along with the board or piece?

"So, let's play a simpler board game."

Vandaloo began to forge after rubble that had rolled anywhere in the now ruined Tarosheim was turned into a golem.

"Hoho"

Using magic to play is like a "rest" in Zadiris's style, and she looks at what Bandaloo makes with interest.

First, make a game version in which squares are cut with stones, and then make thin circular pieces from white stones. And the same thing is made from the black stone by the same number, and finally the white piece and the black piece are stuck together to complete.

"This is a game called reversi."

Yes, it was a reversi made of stone.

"Is there only one kind of piece?"

"Yes, so you can learn how to play right away."

Reversi has a single piece and rules are much easier than shogi or chess. It is much easier to make it with [Golem training].

Above all, Vandaloo was good at reversi. He stayed home while his uncle's family traveled, spending his time playing with his cousin's reversi. I did it online.

Shogi and chess only knew how to move the pieces, and what they did ... how many times did they do the intelligence tests they took at the Institute? Of course it was not fun.

"This is a game in which the pieces that are sandwiched between my pieces are turned over and the color is changed. The winner is the one with the most pieces of the color."

"I see, this is a medium ..."

Vandaloo and Zadiris enjoy reversi for the first time in more than two decades with kachinkachiri and stone pieces. The stone pieces are heavier than those sold on the earth, but both are unobtrusive because they are sober.

The first game was of course Vandaloo victory.

"It's better to take the corner first."

However, Zadiris noticed a reversal formula that Vandaloo had not noticed for years in a single game.

After that, from the second round, the game was even.

"I couldn't lose in playing alone."

“…………”

"Well, don't look at such a poor child with your eyes, and don't take the corner if you sympathize."

"That's a different story from this. It's heartless to compete, boy."

If you are crazy and keep fighting-

"King, I want to do it too!"

"Isn't it doing something interesting? Mix me too

"Well, a board game. It's elegant, can you tell me, Van?"

Black goblins who had completed classes and training had gathered in the meantime, and on the contrary, the gurus and giant undead who were teachers were looking intriguingly, and volks and the treasures had gathered in the meantime.

Eventually, on that day, Vandaloo made a set of nearly 20 reversi boards and pieces.

"That's why it was a fun day today ... I wonder if I was taking a break?"

"I wish I had fun"

Vandaloo seemed to have worked delicately in the mass production of Reversi, but Darcia is smiling whether he doesn't mind.

In fact, using 100,000 magical powers is less than 1% of the total for Vandaloo. It is only enough to recover without taking a break.

"And reversi is fun. Oh, put your mother's piece there. '

"Yes, then I'm here."

Clappers and stone pieces make a pleasant sound to the ears.

"There was no such simple and interesting board game in Milg Shield. Oh, Saria, will you take the corner that your father was aiming for? '

"Dad, the game is heartless."

"My sister and dad are fighting for bone and meat without bones and meat! ?

"Hahaha, Volks. My win again."

"Uoooooo! Why, why not win!

"Well, that's because Volks's husband doesn't cut corners, right?"

"Because a man ... can say that he can do something delicate, he doesn't try to put a piece on the edge."

"Urzezo! Shut up!

"I can't win if I get excited, Volks."

Even after Vandaloo and Darussia fell asleep, Talosheim could still hear ticking, rocks and rocks, and the voice of the undead playing reversi.

If you hear a ticking in Talosheim, it may not be the sound of the skeleton's bones hitting, but because there is a reversi undead nearby.

One arm (released)

An A-class adventurer, [Sword King] Volks is an undead being. The rank and skill are high because the soul of the person is resident in the corpse of the person, but the level is low because he protected between the audience without fighting after being undead, and he is weaker than before.

The undead in this world is not unconditionally stronger than before. Rather, it is more likely to be weak.

In addition, Volks loses his dominant arm, his sword and his sword are broken in the middle, making it unusable, and his armor is tattered. Skill effects such as [Sword King Art], [Strengthen Attack Strength with Sword Equipment: Large], and [Strengthening Defense Strength with Non-Metal Armor: Medium] were not available.

As a result, despite the rank 9, the actual combat ability could be defeated by the rank 7 Noble Orc Buggan. He was good at hit-and-kill combat, so it was possible for Volks to break through the boundaries of Vandaloo, and for him he was more threatened.

However, he is now healed by Vandaloo and given the Bugugan magic sword, so he has regained his fighting ability as ranked.

If you become undead and get used to the changed sensation, you will have the ability to surpass the rank because of your strong skills.

A zombie hero is said to be a monster born when a person who has acquired two lives is a person who is not ashamed of the two until the moment of death. Ranks vary, with at least 4 and at most 10 currently confirmed individuals.

Basically, other undead individuals will not be ranked in this race.

The temple of the goddess Arda teaches that defeating this zombie hero is the greatest memorial service for the heroes. Also, if discovered because of their honor and fame, many adventurers will aim for their defeat.

Zombie heroes often have expensive equipment and belongings with their own name, and bones etc. often become expensive alchemy materials due to magic power, undead that can be expected not only for honor but also for fruition It is.

Skill explanation sword art

One of the top skills in swordsmanship. Swordsmanship can reach level 10 and change as you gain more experience.

Among the top skills that have changed from swordsmanship skills, swordsmanship, swordsmanship, sword spells, magic swords, etc. have been confirmed to date. However, there are few owners and it is not possible to verify exactly how the characteristics, power, etc. of these upper skills differ, and what better superior skills are.

In the Amid empire, the legendary hero Bellwood's Holy Sword Theology is said to be the highest, but it is only a matter of politics and religion. ――I don't know if Bellwood's top skill was really called “Holy Sword Art”.

Other skills other than swordsmanship, such as spears, axes, and martial arts, also have high-ranking skills, and the holders of these high-ranking skills are at least Class A or higher.
