Hundreds Years After I Was Called [Just Corpse], I’ve Become Strongest Undead When I Woke Up - Chapter 41

Chapter 41 : Sudden Assault

Guy rushed to our room buck naked.

Hanna, who was unluckily present, ended up seeing a man’s symbol. She screamed at the top of her lungs.

「W-W-W, WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU’RE DOING, PERVERTED PRIEST?! FIRE―」

「H-HEY, HANNA?! DON’T USE YOUR MAGIC IN THIS PLACE!」

I hurriedly stopped Hanna from trying to turn her own teammate into human charcoal.

「GUY! QUICKLY HIDE THAT THING OF YOURS! THOUGH I’VE NO PROBLEM WITH YOUR SOMEWHAT PERVERTED NATURE, SPARE ME FROM BEING THE VICTIM OF YOUR EXHIBITIONISM!」

「Y-YOU’RE MISTAKEN! I WON’T DENY THAT I HAVE SUCH A FETISH, BUT… IT REALLY CAN’T BE HELPED THIS TIME!」

AT LEAST TRY TO FU*CKING DENY THAT KIND OF HOBBY!!!!

「I… I MET THAT GUY! THE NO LIFE KING IS ENJOYING THE HOT SPRING OF THIS INN!!!」

「「「~??!」」」

We shuddered at once upon hearing Guy screaming with a flushed red face.

No way, he was already… this close!

Uhm? Wait a minute… hot spring?

What was that guy doing in the hot spring?

Ah, screw that, it wasn’t our business.

We should pack our luggage and leave this cursed inn immediately.

「R-Run? To where?! That guy will definitely chase us to the end of the world!」

「We’ve got no choice but to escape, right?! I’m still too young to die!」

「Consider us lucky if we die in peace… In the worst case, he might turn us into undead, and control us till the end of time…」

「STOP IT, DALE! I DON’T WANT TO HEAR ABOUT SUCH A SCARY END!!」

We might become the victims of that guy sooner or later, like those villagers in the news.

But now, we had to at least escape from this place.

With puzzled looks on their faces, the citizens of the town were looking at us quarreling as we ran in the middle of the town.

Great, it seemed that undead didn’t go after u―

「K-KYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA?!」

「NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!」

A scream?!

D-Did that guy coming after us now?!

I turned around timidly to confirm the situation, but there was no one chasing after us.

But we kept running at full speed, assuming the worst.

「H-HURRY UUUUUUUUUUP! MAKE SURE THAT HE WON’T BE ABLE TO CATCH UP WITH US!」

At this moment, we forgot about an extremely important matter… because we were too confused.

The reason why the women screamed at the top of their lungs was simply because… Guy was running naked.

===A Certain Undead With Communication Disorder===

「He didn’t need to get that scared…」

I heaved a sigh, feeling sad seeing that the baldy left as if he was running away from me.

No matter how much I thought about it, they clearly misjudged me as a dangerous undead.

Was there something that I could do to end this silly misunderstanding?

I mean, this problem became even more difficult to solve thanks to my communication disorder.

「THAT’S IT!! IF I CAN’T SPEAK TO THEM, HOW ABOUT TELLING THEM WITH WRITING?」

I unintentionally clapped my hand when I suddenly got some sort of enlightenment.

Everything would be okay as long as I showed the pre-written 「I’m not a dangerous undead」 to them.

That much should be enough to convey my intentions to the other party.

I planned to write that immediately after I got out of the hot spring.

「Anyhow… I should use this chance to wrap my head with a towel to hide my hair color.」

After all, I’d be troubled if another guest who came in ran away like that baldy.

Right at that moment, another guest came into the hot spring.

「~??!」

I was at a loss for words.

Because the newly arrived guest was a young woman.

W-Why did a woman enter this male bath?!

No, if I was not wrong, that baldy shouted something like 『Why is there not a single woman in this place?!』 before he escaped after he saw my face.

Could it be that this hot spring was… really a mixed bathing one?

As I shuddered in fear on the other side, that woman approached me.

Her age was around the latter half of her twenties.

Her chestnut-colored hair was long and rather curly.

Every single one of her movements exuded elegance, and she had a noble-like aura around her.

Naturally, since we were in the hot spring, she was naked too.

Even though her most important places were hidden by a towel (and mist, for some reason), it wasn’t enough to hide her extraordinary proportions.

「Oh my, it turns out there’s another guest before me? And here I thought that I could enjoy the hot spring on my own around this time.」

She spoke with a disappointed look on her face.

Y-Yes maam, I was gonna leave immediately!

That was why, please, stay right there!

Yet my desperate prayer ended up in vain, as the woman, without even changing her expression, spoke.

「I don’t mind if you keep looking at my body. It’s not like I will lose anything from that.」

She entered the hot spring while speaking with such manly tone.

I quickly turned away from her.

「Fufufu, quite a shy person, aren’t you?」

She then immersed herself even deeper into the water while giggling at my reaction.

”
“

Since my appearance was still in my early twenties, the age when I died, I probably looked like a younger man in her eyes.

L-Leave… I needed to leave this dangerous place immediately!

I took a large detour in order to leave the hot spring safely without seeing her naked figure.

But when I was about to pass her…

「…! THIS SMELL…」

Suddenly, just when I thought that she noticed something, a terrifying killing intent surged forth from her body.

「You… aren’t a human, right?」

D-DID SHE JUST BLOWN MY COVER?!

「No matter how much you try to hide it. You… will never be able to completely erase that filthy smell from your body.」

Smell? Did she realize that I was an undead just from my smell?

Maybe she meant something along the smell of my miasma, but…

Anyhow, this woman wasn’t just your average Mary.

「The filthy existence of mixing amongst the humans and pretending to be one of them is unforgivable. EXORCISM.」

「~??!」

When I was wondering what she took out, it turned out to be a sword.

Uhm Miss… Do you realize that you’re flashing you’re naked body right in front of me?

The towel wrapped around her body had already become completely soaked. It was stuck to every curve of her body, making the figure of her body stand out even more.

「Ma…」

I stood in hurry while trying to hide my cro*tch.

The woman didn’t let go of that opening; she leaped up.

…And dropped a sharp and deadly slash on my shoulder.

Although I felt a tinge of pain from that attack, that was all it did to me.

Her sword’s blade only managed to leave a shallow scratch on my skin.

「What, not even this sword that can cut a dragon’s scale can cut you?」

Her eyes opened wide in shock.

At that moment…

The towel that was coiling around her body finally loosened and fell due to all her aggressive movements from before.

「~??!」

「…I won’t get embarrassed being seen naked by something like an undead.」

Yet, she was still as calm as before.

No, her reaction aside, I was the one who would be embarrassed, you know!

「HAAAAH!」

She suddenly swung her sword again as if ignoring my embarassment.

This time, her sword was aimed at my head. As expected, it only managed to tear my cuticle.

「…WAIT!」

I ignored her and leaped from the hot spring.

Who in their right mind would wait? [TL : Ehm, you’re being contradictory here, buddy]

I took the towel that was coiled around my head and wrapped it around my lower half. Then, I broke into a run.

…Was she not chasing after me?

But of course, being a young woman, there was no way she would expose her naked figure in public.

I should take this chance to get away from that crazy, perverted woman.

I ran out of the inn while wondering why I was always being chased around… by naked girls as of late.

I guess I’d have to stea— BORROW some clothes again after this.

◇◇◇

===A Mysterious, Crazy Woman===

The undead escaped naked.

As expected, the woman had no choice but to let the undead escape. After all, even though she was fine being seen naked by an undead, there was no way she could endure the embarrassment of being seen naked by living people.

「That white hair… as I thought…」

”
“

His white hair was exposed to her as soon as he undid the towel that was wrapped around his head.

When she recalled his unusual red eyes, the features of that undead matched a certain being that had become a hot topic all around the world as of late.

「No Life King… Never expected that I’d encounter him in this kind of a rural place.」
