Chapter 64: Ex-Party’s Perspective(8)
“The magic association should also not be underestimated.”
“The Magic Association…”
“Well, if it’s me, I have some connections.”
“Just because you have some connections, how can that help us?”
“The Magic Association is quite exclusive towards different species. Among them, the current top figure is Mireolo, a bounty hunter who became famous as a vampire hunter.”
“I haven’t heard many good things about her, but I know she’s pretty strong.”
“Well… The Magic Association still regards vampires as enemies. Even just having information could be useful. In that battle, it was undoubtedly a vampire who was with Land.”
“I see…”
Fade and Quella finally understood what Meiru meant. Of course, they were aware that the situation was not so sweet that they could survive just by providing information.
“So, in other words, we kill the vampire who was with Land and return with the backing of the Knights and the Magic Association.”
“Well…the Church also doesn’t like vampires.”
“That’s…true, but…”
It was already well known that the Holy Attribute, which was the stronghold of the undead killer, had a bad compatibility with the undead king.
“We have no choice but to do it.”
“…”
“Can we go back like this?”
“I don’t know. But if we go back like this, we might face the death penalty.”
“Death…”
It was only a matter of time before it became clear who had needlessly stimulated the dragon zombie and caused it to revive.
“I understand… let’s do it.”
“Um… what about Land-san?”
“Land was deceived by the vampire. We’ll help him.”
“Understood!”
Quella’s motivation for action had already become solely to protect herself as a saint. However, Meiru also understood that it was not for her own sake, but for those who placed their expectations on Quella as a saint.
“Land…”
Although Fade had a complicated expression on his face, the three of them were already comrades who shared the same fate. There was no one left to object.
Securing only the head of Roig’s corpse, the three of them began to move towards their last hope.
Vampire hunters.
They should be able to fight even against stronger opponents if they have many weaknesses, such as vampires. And above all, they have the card that could be called the Joker for the undead, the saint.
They had nothing else to lose.
The three of them started walking with their own thoughts in their hearts.

“My…head…”
The miasma that had been lingering in the Dragon’s Graveyard should have been still present even after the birth of the Dragon Zombie.
However, strangely enough, the miasma had disappeared cleanly within a few days after the Dragon Zombie vanished.
The amount of miasma left in the Dragon’s Graveyard was not something that should have disappeared within a few days.
As if being sucked away by something, the miasma that had been hanging over the Dragon’s Graveyard had vanished.
“My… head…”
