Chapter 67: Encounter With No Life King

===A Certain Undead With Communication Disorder===

Uhm According to this map, the city called Luoshi is right over there, right?

I was in the middle of my lonely journey toward the port city.

I was currently in the vicinity of a city called Luoshi, one of the important marks on the map.

When I was still alive, I always traveled by myself with a map in hand.

That was why I should be right but I couldn't help but feel restless.

I wonder just how furious the female Holy Knight would be if she discovered that I didn't arrive in time before the ship's departure

Thus I was being careful.

I just need to ask Excuse me, is this Luoshi city? to someone in the city. Their answer is what I need to hear from them, so even I should be able to do that.

Honestly speaking, asking the inspection officer when I entered the city was faster and easier, but they would end up checking my birthplace, something that couldn't be faked.

Thus, I, who made such a judgement, entered the city with my most favorite method: jumping over the wall.

Well then let's go looking for the most suitable person to asknove(l)bi(n.)com

I landed in a rather desolate place in the city.

I used the shadows of the buildings to hide myself and was currently looking for the best person to ask amongst the passersby.

Young women were out of the question.

I crossed out the old ladies too.

I mean, those old ladies would surely escape immediately the moment they saw a mysterious man wearing a hood suddenly approach them.

That left me with the men.

Please, let me find a nice person.

I mean, even amongst the men, I could only talk to a limited group of them.

And then, after waiting for a while, I finally found a man walking by himself.

He was a man in his twenties.

He was a mage-like man who seemed to be kind and intelligent.

Yes, I decided on you.

But wait a minute

How should I address him?

I mean, asking for the city name when I was right in the city itself was strange right?

D-Dammit Why did I only realize such a huge problem right now?!

Asking such a question would make me even more suspicious.

I was at my wit's end, but I suddenly hit upon a certain idea.

===A Certain Over Imaginative Silver Rank Mage of Adventurer Party===

B-B-B-BIG NEWS EVERYONE!

I rushed toward the inn room which was rented by our party while shouting at my comrades.

Although mages were well known for their weak stamina, I ran as fast as I could until I arrived at our base. I had no leeway to readjust my disordered breathing right now.

I-Is everyone here?!

Our party rented a huge room.

Everyone in the room turned their head upon seeing me suddenly opening the door in such a hurry.

Why are you in such a hurry? Rather, the heck, ain't ya sweating way too much.

We could hear already your loud voice when you were climbing the stairs, you kno~w?

Gahahaha! Could it be that you're running back as fast as you can because of the big one! No one is using the toilet right now. Feel free to use it!

Our leader, Ilran; thief, Mitt; and lastly our fighter, Ronda.

Fortunately, everyone had already gathered.

I-It's not toilet the truth is

Thus, I told them about my experience before I ran back to our base.

I met the No Life King right before I ran back to this place.

WHA?!!!!

Ilran and the others' opened their mouths wide upon hearing the news from me.

I-Is that true?!

Yeah, no doubt about it. It was definitely him. He might be trying to hide his face with a hood, but I could confirm his identity since he was right in front of me back then. He definitely has the most prominent features of the No Life King, red eyes and white hair. Moreover his presence isn't that of a human; it's the presence of an undead.

I fought countless undead in the past.

The reason for this was I often received undead purification quests from the guild since they knew that I could use purification magic.

Thus, I became familiar with the peculiar characteristics of an undead.

Nevertheless, I would never have expected for the No Life King himself to call out to me.

Back then, even when I somehow managed to suppress my agitation and replied to his questions like normal, I ended up sweating profusely from head to toe.

So, do you know where that guy is right now?!

Worry not. I used tracking magic on him. We can find him immediately.

Great! This guy gets lucky when wandering around, huh!

Ilran raised his greatsword in high spirits.

We couldnt waste our time anymore.

We prepared our weapons immediately and left the inn without even returning the key to our room.
