Chapter 61 A Pet Came to My House

I wooooon!

At the same time Haru raised her victory declaration, she collapsed on the ground. Thats right, she accomplished her favorite giant-killing. She gained an overwhelming victory against a superior opponent who normally cant be defeated no matter how hard you try. Moreover, that opponent is now like this.

Gobu.

Yes, by Harus Weil, that red goblin became a zomb Gobu!?

Oi, Haru. What did you do to this Gobu-san?

Ah, Shish!

Haru is already full of energy as she gets up. Her excitement doesnt stop and her breathing is rough.

How was it, how was it? How was the battle just now!?

Uh, well perfect score. Yeah, it was perfect.

Regarding the battle, theres nothing I can advise on this time. Thats how excellent it was. I was going to help her immediately if it got dangerous, but I didnt have to do that at all.

She used Heart Hash to disturb the opponents mind when using aiki, but what especially surprised me was that she also used it when exchanging blows with the staff and kicks. Its easy to activate it when touching the opponent with your hands, but its quite difficult when it comes to your feet. As for the staff, its not even a part of the body. Its a technique thats very difficult to do if you cant control your magic power smoothly. Casting the magic without mistaking the timing when kicking or attacking with the staff, only a few people who can do that even among the knights.

Also, she has a good understanding of how to use the black magic stone staff. Taking advantage of the materials characteristic, which doesnt accept magic power except from those who first passed magic power through it, she used her staff as a shield to break the opponents magic. Normally, you cant do that easily even if you know about this. Even when facing an attack that could kill her if she took a direct hit, her courage at that last-minute was really something. My disciple really has nerves of steel.

Haha, I know right!? This battle was a great satisfaction even for me!

Well, thats good So, what about this Gobu-san?

Gobu.

I feel like hes cunningly saying gobugobu.

Hes not! Im devotedly reproducing Gobuo-kun! Hes like that because I instructed him to do so when using Weil!

Gobuo-kun? For what?

Eh? Isnt he cute? This masculinity where he looks good and can only say gobu. This is the best!

No comment. Well, the intelligence of this goblin was probably high to begin with. Even if he became a zombie, it seems that he understands Harus orders. His ability is still high even though its lowered. I guess he can be counted as a fighting force.

Shish, can I raise him at home?

You cant. Return him to the place you picked him up.

I will raise him properly! I will have more time for training if I let him help me with the housework, and he will be a healing in the house! Also, I will pay for his food!

You are the only one who is healed by a goblin Rather than that, Gobuo-kuns position is as a pet, huh?

Haru, I know about your strong spirit. I know that you wont lose interest in him halfway. But he will rot, you know?

!?

It seems that Haru realized a serious fact. Even though this Gobuo-kun only has a few injuries on his body, Weil is the lowest zombification magic. Even if he doesnt fight, his body will be chipped away as the days go by. His looks will be ugly, and most of all, he will smell bad. Recovery magic will have the opposite effect to a zombie without a soul. The only way to repair him is to use exclusive magic.

N-No way even though its my once-in-a-lifetime encounter with Gobuo-kun

Once-in-a-lifetime encounter, huh?

Its unusual for Haru to be dispirited. Uh, as a master, Ill be troubled if you are depressed because of this ahh, hmm.

Haru, will you be more efficient in your training if Gobuo-kun helps you?

T-Thats right. It seems that he can understand simple orders, so I think cleaning and washing will be much faster.

Then, until you learn the exclusive magic, Ill take care of him so that he doesnt rot. Ill also make his appearance better as a service. You have to work hard on your daily training and raise him properly, okay?

S- Shishoooo!

Hey, no hugging.

Well, its reasonable if I think of it as a reward for her hard work this time. Its a bit of a problem if we leave his appearance as it is, so I guess he will look a bit cuter if he dresses up like a housekeeper. Probably. Anyway, Haru has never lied to me. Lets believe in her words and hope that her training will be better.

Ah, thats right! The battle wasnt over yet. Shish, Im going to help Chinatsu-chan.

You dont have to do that, you know? I told you that Chinatsu will take all the other enemies, didnt I?

W-Well, thats true

Haru looked around at the goblins who were panicking in the surroundings. Their leader, Gobuo-kun, was defeated and made into a zombie after all. Its impossible not to get panicked. Some of them are trying to run away and some are still trying to fight, but the result of being cut down by Chinatsu remains the same. Our beloved Nell-sama entrusted her disciple to me, so I have to let Chinatsu gain experience properly.

Chinatsu-chan is fast, isnt she? Her speed is on par with Gobuo-kun, I guess?

Probably. But, her attack and defense are low, so the plan is to raise her Sword Arts skill here. Not only her HP and strength, but her agility will increase too so shell be even faster.

Thanks to the mock battle with Chinatsu, I was able to keep up with Gobuo-kuns speed. I have to thank her later. Still, she will be even faster, huh Im looking forward to it!

Im looking forward to seeing your status, as Im sure it has grown in this battle. However, Ill do it after Ive finished this small business.

Looking at the situation so far, I guess itll be fine even if Im not here. Haru, Ill be away fo a bit, so please support Chinatsu so that the enemies dont escape.

Okay. By the way, where are you going?

What, Im just going to punish the bad boy whos peeping.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

In the southern battlefield against the army of the orcs, theres a strange scene. There is no particular change in the lush grasslands and the peaceful landscape. However, there are burnt corpses scattered on it. The number of burnt corpses exceeds a thousand, some were blackened and some were carbonized and crumbled down.

Most of the corpses belonged to orcs. Orcs, Orc Captains, Orc Generals, Orc Kings there was also an even higher evolutionary form, Orc Lord. However, even though their levels were different, their conditions are now similar. Just like the goblins, the army is well-armed. However, theres only one survivor and he is about to die.

Well, you are the last one. Do you have any last words? Lets see, Orc what was it again?

Nell Lemure, the cause of this disaster, asked him so. In front of her is Orc Satan, the leader who led the orcs. His limbs are already burnt and he is no longer able to stand. The only thing he can do is to distort his ugly face.

Fuha, hahahahaha! You, remember this well. You will

Before he could spit out his parting remarks, his body was swallowed by flames in an instant and burned out.

Ah, on second thought, you dont have to say it. Rather than that, I found someone who seems to know more about the situation.
