7 7. The prince cuts the wrist.

The woman and elderly woman who saw Charlotte came to her senses in surprise.

“Charlotte, are you okay? ”

“Oh my God · · ·. Look at this cold sweat. Huh? Fever's down. Thank goodness. Lie down more. ”

“You must be hungry. Eat potatoes.That's all I have for now. ”

The lady gave out a plate with potatoes and a knife.

Charlotte was embarrassed by the care of her and her sisters.

What happened to him? Where am I? Why am I here? Where's Mom? Where's Dad?

There was chaos in my memory. I put my forehead on a headache.

When Charlotte is embarrassed, someone screams.

The startled Charlotte rises from her seat in a reflexive manner.

A woman steps back, pointing at the window.

"They're coming! They're coming!"

The people at the monastery looked at the window. Charlotte also looked out at the window.

You see zombies approaching the monastery.

The number is considerable.

The faces of those in the monastery grow pale.

Screaming and looking for a place to hide.

But Charlotte reacted differently.

Zombies?

Charlotte is reflexively moving.

I ran toward the door with a knife placed next to the potatoes. Surprised women hug her and stop her.

“Charlotte! It's dangerous out there! ”

“I can't! ”

Charlotte was even more energetic during the women's lives. Rather, the women who were trying to stop them were dragged by Charlotte.

It was a ridiculous power for a 16-year-old girl to pay.

The boys who were watching stopped her.

“Huh? ”

Charlotte rumbles, startled.

It was because I was pushed from the force, but I could have hurt someone else by the knife I was holding.

Charlotte is powerless.

At that moment, her eyes widened.

You can see a boy leaping up through the window, raising his shovel.

He drops the shovel.

A zombie breaks its head and falls.

“What are you doing? Break your forehead. Or you're dead! ”

The boy cried out.

Charlotte tilts her head.

What do you think it is?

The word is unknown, but strong men seem to understand its meaning.

Screaming screams.

The terrified villagers wield their farming equipment with evil.

The farming machine slaps the zombie's body.

A person is pushed into a struggle between the zombies.

The boy gripped his teeth, grabbed the back of the man and forcibly pulled him out.

The boy swings the shovel. The zombie hits you on the head and gives you a thumping motion. You pick up the shovel again and smash the skull with a shovel.

Charlotte looks surprised.

A boy of his own age, or even one or two, is hunting zombies before any of the strong men.

“Don't rest. If you're gonna whine about being sick, kill one more! ”

He also has a very rough tone.

The men stare at the boy and rush at the zombies.

One, two, in turn, you take down the zombies.

The slow-paced, whirling zombie is easily overwhelmed.

The boy whines. He's tired, out of breath, and he's barely standing on his shovel.

“Your Highness, do you know how to hunt zombies? ”

“He's the Crown Prince of the Palace. You know how to hunt zombies. ”

It was the words of those who hid in fear.

Charlotte is startled.

The Crown Prince?

On the other hand, I heard that the Crown Prince came to the Monastery on the hill.

Charlotte looks over the window at him.

He hunts the dead with desperation and determination.

* *

The villagers scream like screams.

Stab and drop. Crush and crush.

As his flesh rises in all directions, the villagers take a step back with a desperate look.

They sigh and see more than 100 zombie corpses spreading all over the place.

There was a man who sat down with strength in his legs.

I could see a family member or acquaintance holding his broken head and weeping.

“I'm glad no one's dead. ”

I shoved a shovel into the ground and sighed, leaning against my back.

It's hard. It's fucking hard!

If I had known this, I would have chosen a career group called Warriors when playing part-time games.

How cool is that?

It's completely invincible if you use the power to make a pair.

Better than the Necromancer profession, at least by looking at it and using skills.

Or how good would it be to be here as a level-up senior citizen?

“Well done.”

A farmer approaches and gives you a leather bag filled with water.

“Oh, thank you. ”

I took a leather bag, washed my hands, washed my head, and quenched my thirst.

“Did I say grill? ”

The farmer grill asked in surprise.

“Did I say my name? ”

“Yes, I did. ”

No, I didn't. But that doesn't mean I know your name because I have game skills.

Grill said with a blunt expression.

“Thank you.”

“There's a lot to be thankful for. ”

“However, the emperor's name is · · · · a lowly farmer. ”

“cherish your job. Farmers are a valuable profession. ”

Grill has a look on his face. You nod forcefully, even though you're embarrassed.

By the way, didn't he take the girl with the plague?

“What happened to her? Is he dead?”

“Her? Oh, you mean Charlotte? She's safe. Women will take good care of you at the Monastery. ”

Well, good for you.

I looked towards the monastery.

I felt like someone was watching me at the window.

I turned my head to look at the window of the Monastery, but there was no face that shone.

Is it the mood?

I looked back at the dead.

My eyes froze with the stench of a nosebleed.

It's too dark to be a zombie overnight.

“That's weird.”

“What's that? ”

“The plague. ”

The plague has spread, but this level of zombie waves is unusual.

No matter how much the plague is close to disaster, it will not be like this.

“It's weird to see zombies this close to the Commander's Land. It's really dangerous. At this rate, we'll be wiped out. ”

“What if you say extinction? ”

“Everyone dies except me. ”

The grill's face pales.

“If we don't find the cause and solve it, it will be. Even if you notice something strange coming from nearby Ronia territory, it will take more than a migration. I don't know if I can hold out until then. ”

“So what do we do? ”

“Survive. Find the cause. That's later, and now I'm gonna get cremated and buried. ”

“You mean now? ”

Everyone's tired. The grill wants to rest.

“When you have a lot of work to do, you have to do it quickly. Plus · · · ·. ”

I frowned at the dead.

“You were in pain. We need to get her comfortable a little faster. ”

You have the villagers dig a pit around the cemetery.

The funeral was brief and simple.

You gather the bodies, cremate them, and dig a pit. You buried the ashes and set up a wooden plank.

I would have used a quality memorial stone, but I didn't have enough stamina for now.

While everyone was watching, I looked at the grave buried in the pit, holding a shovel, and muttered.

This is a purification ritual. May they rest in peace in honor of the dead.

Until the next day, I devoted myself to the last tomb and turned around and told the villagers.

“I'm so tired. Let's take a little break and get the rest. You'd better slow down a little bit. ”

I spoke and looked at the villagers.

I had a bad look in my eye.

Some faces are blank. The other half looked surprised.

The villagers coughed and avoided my gaze as I tilted my head.

I called the chief frowning.

“Chief.”

“Yes, what is it? ”

The chief approached with an awkward but somewhat gentle smile.

Something is wrong with me.

I made a fat face. Whether I made that face or not, the chief waited until the end.

“Has anything changed here in the past few days? ”

“What if you say change? ”

“A strange object came, or a stranger came. ”

“I don't know. Nothing like that. The plague started spinning a month ago, and there was nothing strange about it. ”

So this is what happened to infected rats or newborns?

However, the artificial feeling was strong that it occurred naturally.

“Is there a Necromancer? ”

The chief and the whole village were frightened, as well as the murmuring.

The Necromancer here was truly a catastrophe.

"Apostles that sow plague," "Devils that redeem souls," and so on, they were designated as "sinners."

It was also the continental law that if you kill someone immediately for any reason, you will not be punished.

In short, I'm a Necromancer.

“Necromancer?”

“Oh my God · · ·! Is that disgusting thing in our village? ”

I'm sorry I'm disgusted.

It wouldn't be weird to pick up an insult to the Crown Prince.

“I'm guessing everywhere. ”

If so, it's a real pain in the ass.

If the opponent hides from you, it's a horse-drop. However, the probability of being close was quite high.

We'll have to be nearby to control the zombies.

"But there's no way to find out."

If there are priests or paladins who go on a professional search, if the villagers do not know anything, they will throw food at them.

Well, I don't think so. It could just be a natural plague.

The question is how to find the cause · · ·.

“Let's just stay one night. Tell everyone to take a break. Oh, we'll take shifts. ”

I get tired sometimes.

We dug up the ground, moved the bodies, and buried them all day, so there were physical and mental limitations.

At this rate, I can't do anything.

“I'm going to take a nap. Wake him up if anything happens. ”

I told the chief and the farmer Grill that and walked towards the monastery.

* *

“Gaaaah!”

Screams echo with thunder.

While sleeping in the monastery, I opened my eyes in surprise. I keep hearing rain in my ears.

Lightning flashes in the dark vision, and you see someone's face right in front of you.

A girl with white hair, bloodshot eyes, and a frozen face.

She looked at me with her surprised eyes wide open.

“What?”

“... ”

The girl looks embarrassed and leaves. Then came the grill.

“Your Highness!”

“I can't hear you. ”

My body was heavy like a sponge soaked in blood.

He's delusional. The voice of a whale scream resounded in my head.

“What's going on? ”

I asked the Grill a question and looked at the girl.

The girl with the pale eyes was sitting in a corner staring at me.

My eyes are cold and cold.

This is the guy that ate the zombie rat the other day, right? Your eyes are full of poison. You don't blame me, do you?

“Your Highness!”

“I'm listening. What? What's all the fuss about? ”

The farmer's grill exclaims urgently.

“One of the villagers has been kidnapped by a zombie! ”

I forgot what Grill said.
