Chapter 376: 16 Year Old Inglis and Leone’s Homecoming (4)

Y-, you're right. That's so sad Glis, is there a way to change him back?

Once they've reached this point, it's doubtful. It's akin to becoming a Magic Stone Beast.

Inglis responded to Rafinha's query, then addressed the undead before her.

Give it your all! Use your strength! You'll reach me in no time!

GRAAAAHHH!!

It was uncertain if the creature comprehended her encouragement, but it certainly intensified its efforts.

You're doing great! Keep it up!

Hey, Glis! Are you actually enjoying this?!

Why not?

Encountering an undead was one experience; battling it was entirely different. Inglis always approached every fight with a positive attitude, aiming for self-improvement.

Ugh!

Rafinha's dismay was evident just before the inevitable occurred.

The undeads leg snapped, right in front of Inglis. It likely applied too much force without considering its physical limitations. Devoid of reason and pain perception, such mishaps were frequent for these beings. The injury was exacerbated due to its tendons being previously torn.

EEeeK?!

Rafinha's expression mirrored her horror.

Its lost the ability to feel life's pain It doesnt care about its own well-being, Eris explained.

Youre quite informed.

Eris' knowledge about the undead didn't surprise Inglis. After all, she was the renowned Hyrule Menace.

"Eeh?!" Rafinha exclaimed in confusion.

"It's the most efficient method," Eris explained. "If I were to confront them, I might damage the house."

Considering they were inside Leones residence, this was far from desirable.

Eris was right. Rafinha's healing arrow was ideal for this. "Your arrow causes minimal destruction, and it's potent enough to neutralize an undead quickly."

Understanding the gravity of the situation, Rafinha responded, "I-, I get itEeeii!!"

Upon being struck by Rafinha's arrows, the undead transformed into grotesque, fleshy masses. The arrows created grotesque injuries that rapidly deteriorated their form.

"Uuueee That's an unsettling sight" Rafinha murmured in disgust.

"We need to keep moving, Rani. If you come across any humanoid figures, use your healing arrows," Inglis reminded her.

Eris nodded in agreement. "They won't harm living humans."

The trio methodically combed through the Olpha residence. On the first floor, they encountered no trace of Leone but did find more undead. Rafinha quickly dispatched them with her arrows.

"She's not on the first floor" Rafinha observed.

"We should check upstairs next," Eris suggested.

Recalling a detail, Inglis interjected, "Actually, this mansion has a cellar. I remember from our last visit."

"Then let's divide our efforts. I'll investigate the upper levels, while you two inspect the cellar," Eris decided.

Both Inglis and Rafinha nodded in agreement, "Yes!"

Following their plan, Inglis and Rafinha made their way to the cellar. To their dismay, they found its entrance sealed.

"Leone! Leone, are you in there?" Rafinha's voice echoed as she knocked forcefully on the door.

But there was only silence. "No response It appears to be locked from the inside," Inglis remarked.

Could it be that Leone had barricaded herself inside to escape the undead? If so, she might be situated deep within the cellar, possibly out of earshot.
