Chapter 346 - Waking Up With A Bunch Of Undead
??
Although instead of acting aggressive were very friendly to Ervas and Veronica alongside their party, as if they had only been misunderstood this whole time.
However that was not really the truth, as they only acted friendly because of Ervas and Veronica\'s presence and aura, alongside their Guidance Skills, which had begun to immediately affect these creatures, making them friends and not foes.
The morning finally came, as Ervas and Veronica had just woken up, being greeted by a group of Zombies, Living Armors, and Ghosts.
"GAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH… NAM, NAM…"
"OOOooOooOOOOoooOOOoooooOOOOOoohhh…!"
"Aggaagaghhh… Gaggagahhh…!"
"Good morning guys, how\'s the day going?" asked Veronica, as she stretched her arms, although she really did not need to.
"Well there is a lot of things to do today, so let\'s get up," said Ervas, who was sleeping at Veronica\'s side for now, as they had decided to sleep hurriedly after knowing most of the Manor.
Knock, knock!
"Oh, who is it?" asked Veronica, as a zombie opened the door.
"M-My lady, there is a giant hairy spider in the bathroom… It does not move from the toilet and… I wanted to use it…" said Percy.
"Oh, that\'s Cecilia! She had laid her eggs near the toilet, and she is an exceptionally good mother so she\'s waiting for them to hatch! Telling her to move would be pretty rude, don\'t you think?" asked Veronica.
"Yeah, Percy, be more considerate," said Ervas.
"E-Eh? I-I see…" muttered Percy, it has been six months since he joined Ervas and Veronica, and although there were monsters all around the Igni Kingdom, he always had his own house where no one would invade, so every time he wanted some time alone or to relax, he would go to his home…
But now that he had to share rooms in this Manor, he would have to get used to living with dozens of monsters and Undead roaming every corner…
He was rather tolerant already, mostly thanks to Ervas and Veronica\'s Guidance… but still, it was hard for him to cope with it.
"You can use our bathroom," said Veronica.
"T-Thanks!" said Percy, rushing towards the bathroom in the room where Veronica and Ervas slept.
However, he quickly opened the door of the bathroom, as cold sweat dripped from his body.
"T-There is… a large talking skull in the toilet…" said Percy.
"Oh, that\'s Peter!" said Veronica.
"Peter likes to talk a lot," said Ervas.
"I-I see… C-Could you ask him to leave the bathroom for just a second?" asked Percy.
"Hmm… We\'ll try but he doesn\'t like to be ordered around," said Veronica.
"Peter, can you leave the bathroom?" asked Ervas with a slightly louder voice, as Peter immediately answered.
"Gahahahahahaahah! GAHAHAHAHAHAHA! GYAHAHAHAHAHAHA!"
"He doesn\'t seem to want to," said Ervas.
"Sorry about that, but we can\'t deal with him that well, he\'s like in another world sometimes," said Veronica.
"…S-Seriously? (Both of you are incredibly strong and you cannot deal with a talking skull?! Ah… well, I can\'t deal with it either…)" sighed Percy.
"Well if there is no other way you can get inside and go to your house," said Veronica, expanding her shadow.
"T-Thank you very much!" said Percy, diving into the shadows and disappearing.
"I am feeling hungry," said Ervas.
"Same! Let\'s go eat something~ Come on guys," said Veronica, as she walked with Ervas and the zombies, living armors, and other undead creates around them, Peter also followed them while laughing maniacally, it seemed that he could only communicate like this.
"GAAAHH…!"
"OOooOooOOOoohh…"
"Gaagagagghhh… Aaaagagaggaggghh…!"
"Gyhihihihi! Gyhahahaha! GYAHAHAHAHA!"
The sounds of dozens of Undead resonated through the entire manor, as Ervas and Veronica reunited with their party downstairs.
Most of them seemed to have already gotten a bit used to them, although Ditoyle, Ismene, Desephise, and Anna seemed a bit nervous with all the loud noises.
"My lords, breakfast is ready~," said Lilith, as she was wearing a beautiful maid outfit fabricated with Veronica\'s metallic threads.
"That\'s a nice dress," said Ervas.
"A-Ah~! D-Do you think so, my lord?! V-Veronica-sama made it for me! I am so glad that you find it nice…" said Lilith as she was almost orgasming.
"I made it so of course, it\'s nice," said Veronica.
"So, what\'s for breakfast?" asked Ervas.
"GAAAAHHH…!"
A zombie with a butler outfit walked towards Ervas, as he carried a silver plate, revealing several eyes over a crimson soup.
The eyes were watching at Ervas.
"Oh, soup?" asked Ervas rather happy, as he began to dig in, the eyes were crunchy and filled with juice.
"No wait that\'s not it! Jonathan doesn\'t give weird food to our master!" said Lilith, taking away the soup from Ervas and putting a plate with pancakes and fruits.
"GAAH!" roared Jonathan.
"Eh? I liked it, don\'t take it away," said Ervas, expanding his arm like a phantom noodle and grabbing the soup.
"B-But…" muttered Lilith.
"Don\'t worry I will also eat your pancakes," said Ervas.
"Well, alright…" sighed Lilith, like Jonathan, a Zombie Butler, glanced at Lilith rather smugly!
"Y-You…!" said Lilith, as veins began to appear on her forehead, glaring at Jonathan with anger!
"Hey I like this eye soup, what\'s the eyes from?" asked Veronica.
"GAAAAHHH…! The eyes… Gaaahh…! Of the… Damned!" roared Jonathan.
"Oooh~," said Veronica, as she drank the whole thing and asked for seconds.
"GYAHAHAHAHA! GUAHAHAHAHA!" laughed Peter as he floated around without another purpose.
"A-Anyways, what are we doing today?" asked Anna.
"We have a lot of things to do, actually… We will first go register some of you back to William, then we\'ll go register to the Adventurer Guild, the Tamer Guild, and we\'ll also go investigate around a bit more," said Ervas.
"Oh, we might also go fishing!" said Veronica.
"Aren\'t you taking this too lightly?" asked Anna.
"Let me have a break, I\'ve been flying non-stop for six months!" said Veronica.
"…You\'re right," said Anna.
"Well by fishing Veronica most likely means exploring the sea underwater and hunt the strong monster roaming around, there should be some good bounties about it. If we get some good reputation for monster extermination, we might be able to catch the attention of aristocrats," said Ervas.
"And it would be more subtle than by simply selling a million gold nuggets that I got out of my ass (Literally)!" said Veronica.
"True… though I don\'t like how you used the wording there… But you are right," said Anna.
"By the way where is Aqua and the rest?" asked Ismene.
"Oh… They are still exploring around, they found a little hidden dungeon in a small forest and they are having a feast inside… And I believe that Aqua went to the sea and she is drinking water or something," said Ervas.
"Shouldn\'t we be more worried? What if they end up calling the attention of people?" asked Jason.
"Oh! Well…" muttered Veronica.
"It is another of Veronica\'s plans, by making them bring attention, people will think that they are dangerous monsters or something, so we can pretend to slay them and earn even more reputation," said Ervas.
"Yeah… That!" said Veronica.
"…Okay then, I hope it doesn\'t go out of control," said Anna.
"Don\'t worry, we are with them through our clones, they haven\'t been seen by people yet, though they did discover that something is off," said Ervas.
"Alright then, let\'s get to it!" said Jason.
"Gahhh…" muttered a zombie butler near Jason, pointing at the soup that Jason has not touched.
"Eerr… What?" asked Jason.
"Jonathan is upset, why have you not drank the soup he prepared for us?" asked Ervas.
"…D-Do I have to?" asked Jason.
"Of course," said Ervas.
"…M-Maybe it is not so bad…" said Jason, taking a sip.
However, his face quickly turned purple, as he vomited right before Jonathan!
"Dad, that\'s very rude…" said Ervas.
"I-I am sorry, but this soup… It is… well, I am allergic to eyes, sorry!" said Jason.
"Oh, so that\'s it, don\'t worry," said Ervas.
"Gaaaahhh!" said Jonathan, as he grabbed the soup and went running away.
"I-I am fine with the sandwich and tea I had," said Jason.
"Don\'t worry, Jonathan went to serve you a new soup," said Ervas.
"W-What?!" asked Jason, as Jonathan came running back, bringing a new plate…
This time, the soup was still red, but instead of eyes, it had pieces of flesh, and ears cut into pieces.
"E-Ears?!" asked Jason.
"Oh, that looks nice, can I have some too?" asked Veronica.
"GAAH!" said Jonathan, running to serve some more, happily serving his masters.
"Good luck," said Ismene, patting Jason\'s shoulders.
"This soup is something else… But I believe that it could be a bit better with some more spices," said Gaius.
"OoooOooOoOOOOOooohh…" said a skeleton wearing a chef hat, it seemed that he prepared the soup.
However, instead of getting angry, he heard Gaius while nodding, as he saw his tips as insightful.
"OoooOOoOOhh…!" said the skeleton, as he took away a rib and gifted it to Gaius.
"W-What\'s this?" asked Gaius.
"It\'s a gift, accept it," said Ervas.
"Ooh! Thanks, buddy," said Gaius, as he took the bone piece, and in exchange, he gave away a piece of his moldable prosthetic arm, which the skeleton treasured.
"OooOoooOOOhhh…" said the skeleton, slowly walking away.
"He must be wanting to become a good chef," said Gaius.
"Chef? That\'s Gustav, he likes to wear costumes," said Veronica.
"Eh…?"
"Oh yeah, so that was Gustav! I couldn\'t recognize him, he\'s so good at disguising himself!" said Veronica.
"…Did I just gave pro cooking tips to a skeleton that doesn\'t even cook?" asked Gaius.
"Well maybe he will be interested in cooking, he seemed inspired," said Ervas.
