Kicking the knight away with my foot, I put on a relaxed act, but inside, I was far from calm.
That was really close!
If I had been just a second slower, Bishi’s head would have been flying off!
I still haven’t given her what I promised! If that happened, it’d be a huge problem!
I’d become the bad girl!
This is all that idiot’s fault!
If he had just teleported to a proper spot, I wouldn’t have been in this much of a hurry!
When Adril asked me for help, I was just about to enter the dungeon.
I was still considering how to handle the dungeon inside, thinking about how to force my way through, when I suddenly heard a call for help.
There was no one around who could handle it, so sending someone else wasn’t an option!
And if I moved with my friends, I had no idea what kind of mess might unfold in the dungeon!
Besides, the person I had to save was a necromancer—sending someone unqualified would definitely make things worse!
So, I was debating what to do when Faybee grabbed my shoulder.
"Young Lady, we’ll handle this. You don’t need to worry."
I had already gathered all the information I could about this dungeon.
They could handle things on their own.
Even if the worst came to pass, they could deal with the monsters that might spill out of the dungeon.
So, I had to go personally.
"Joy will send you with teleportation magic. Go. We’ll have everything handled before you return."
"Hey, you guys..."
"Trust us. We’re much stronger than you think."
So, I was reluctantly pushed into coming here, but I never expected that idiot to make another mistake!
How hard is it to fix the coordinates properly!?
Why throw me so far away when I’ve never been to this place before!?
Why didn’t you just teleport me above like last time!?
Then I could have just smashed things with my power!
Aaagh! I’ll never forgive him. When I get back, I’m going to torment that idiot.
"Why do you stop us, Apostle?"
I sneered at the words of the holy knight, who seemed utterly confused.
"Hehe, what a stupid question. Do I need a reason to torment trash?"
"That person is a necromancer. He’s a being that shouldn’t exist in this world."
"And you? Heh, who are you to judge someone, you corpse-fiddler?"
"...What!? I am no such thing!"
"Are you ashamed? Then you should’ve stayed hidden in your little hole. Bragging about your lovers like this is disgusting."
I twirled my mace and gave Adril a glance.
She quickly pulled Bishi back.
It’s a good thing she’s quick. With that guy nearby, I couldn’t freely summon divine power.
"You’re a thousand times better than this disgusting trash who has no friends, clinging to ghosts."
I mean, using the souls of the dead isn’t inherently bad.
It’s often painted in a negative light, but when you think about it, it has its positive sides.
It’s a lot better than a madman trying to resurrect an evil god and claim divine power.
"Hey, losers. Can you stop glaring at me? I’m sick of seeing you whimpering with your pride thrown away, alive only to be trampled again."
As I continued speaking, I could clearly see their expressions growing harsher.
"Ah~ addicted to defeat, huh? Do you want to lose to a cute girl this time? Heheh. The smell of death you give off is just as disgusting as you are."
Without a second thought, the knight tried to stop those charging at me.
It was clear they weren’t in a position to reason, so they must have something to control the situation.
"Aren’t you afraid? You let yourself get caught by a brat like me? Heheh. Pathetic."
"I’ve come here solely to eliminate the necromancer. I have no intention of fighting the Apostle."
"Heh~. Why do you look so disgusting, though? Is my belly button bothering you?"
"You won’t be shaken by that, right?"
"Of course not. If I’m not a corpse, I don’t get excited by that."
I scattered the fairies around me as I gripped my weapon.
The fairies, seemingly treating this as a game, had smiles on their faces.
"Did you follow a crazy person for that? Planning to take my corpse later? Ew~. It’s really disgusting."
"...I..."
"Did you secretly bury your face in the corpse, huh? Is your little thing still intact? I thought it would be rotting by now. Ah! But I guess there was nothing to rot, was there?"
"..."
"Yeah, you look like it. I mean, if you were confident, you wouldn’t feel sexual desire for a corpse, right?"
The knight led the charge. Behind them, the corpses followed, rushing toward me.
There was no coordinated strategy.
The source of this c𝐨ntent is freёwebnovel.com.
There wasn’t even any minimal organization.
They were just charging toward me, following their emotions.
Such a number is absolutely not frightening.
To my eyes, they were just beasts wanting to rape a girl.
A step to the right.
The sword slices through the air.
Then a step back.
The hand trying to grab me misses, and the spear that follows pierces it.
Taking a step forward, I shattered a skull with my mace and yanked the spear.
The person holding the spear became my shield, taking an arrow meant for me.
"Hehe, is that how badly you wanted some affection?"
"You bitch...!"
After tossing the human shield aside to control the archer, I took another step back.
Once again, the sword slices past me.
And the face of the corpse aiming for my side.
"Ew~. You shouldn’t handle toys like that so roughly."
The enemies’ breathing grew rough.
Ignoring everything around me, their eyes were fixated solely on me.
Their voices filled with rage.
Even so, it was highly entertaining to watch these useless attempts, especially since I had bought so much time.
Though I could have mocked them further, I decided to stop here. There were too many things I needed to do.
I infused my footsteps with divine power, adding more to the area around me.
The purification power granted by the worthless god.
The power to erase the unclean from this world.
As the god’s power settled on the earth, things that should never exist on this plane turned to dust and scattered.
The only knight left, upon seeing my power, seemed to lose his will and lowered his weapon.
I knocked the knight out and pulled out some rope from my inventory to bind him.
Though my grandfather’s constant advice had been ear-piercing, the result was good.
I didn’t even know how to untie the knot I had made, so there’s no way the knight would figure it out.
Dragging him, I tossed him into a corner and moved toward Bishi near the mansion entrance.
I promised I’d keep my word, so I had to ask her to wait a bit.
Since I made the promise, I should at least deliver the best I can.
I’ve built up quite a debt, so I should be able to make demands on these fools. There’s no rush.
Adril’s not going to achieve enlightenment overnight.
"Bishi. Can you explain things to your mother?"
I moved forward with light steps, but when I saw Bishi’s mother, who was tearfully trying to speak, I added more pressure to my lips.
"Yeah. I know."
“I just wandered around for a moment and made a mistake, but that kid’s true nature is.”
“I know, ma’am. Do you think I would have come here if I thought this guy was trash?”
She opened her mouth as if she didn’t think she would be accepted, so I snickered and turned my gaze toward Bissi.
“It’s true that this guy is stupid, timid, incompetent, and greedy, but he’s not the type of guy who deserves punishment. If I sent him to the sloppy master, he’d probably send him back, saying, “Why did you send me something like that?”
“...Huh?”
“If he were a little cute, I wouldn’t know. He looks like a country bumpkin, so he has no charm at all. He’s not my sloppy taste.”
Bishi's mother's eyes were spinning at the words that were either defending or insulting her daughter.
At times like this, the Messagaki skill is really annoying.
How can I convey that my daughter is a good person?
"Sniff."
While she was thinking about that, she suddenly heard crying from behind her.
Bishi's eyes were red and she tried to wipe her tears with her hands, but her hands were too small to hide the endless stream of tears.
In the end, Bishi, unable to bear the overwhelming emotions, hugged me and started to sob.
I could have avoided it as much as I wanted, but then I would have become a heartless bitch.
For now, I have to endure it. Well.
- Thank you.
When I saw Adri bowing his head in disbelief, I couldn't stand the feeling of my spine tingling and moved my lips.
'This toy seems to like me more than you? Poor thing. You were the only one who thought you were my best friend.'
- ...Don't be a jerk! I'm Vissy's best friend! Vissy is mine! You play with a plump nun or a stupid wizard! You bitch!
That's a bit harsh to say to the person who saved your life.
I grumbled, but a smile formed on my lips.
I feel better this way than being praised.
