Chapter 1 Terror Of The Heroine Original World !!  

Stuck in a world full of the undead, without clothes, without food, without magic, and without purpose...

"THAT IS NOT TRUE, I HAVE THE IMPORTANT PURPOSE TO SAVE ALL LIFE IN THIS WORLD FROM THE PROBLEM OF THE UNDEAD!!"

Without realizing it, one of my hands raised with a punch straight up to the sky. While both feet standing upright against gravity. Which was very draining for me who had not eaten at all since morning. Meanwhile, the stupid undead who had only been muttering all night. They were still trying to reach my unreachable self in the middle of this boulder.

Huuuuft, damn it... why did it turn out like this?

And I know that protesting was useless. Besides to not gonna heard by the hero girl who caused this all to happen. The protests would only get me hungrier to my stomach as a result! But do not misunderstand me. When I call her the 'hero girl', sure I mean not because she has done a great contribution. Neither did she have the ability equal to such a degree that she dubbed so!

It wasn't the reason she called the 'hero girl'! Rather it was because of the stupid tradition. Which is compel the main church to summon heroes from another world. When a demon lord appeared in the world.

Yes, it's all nothing but the title bestowed by tradition! Which is in fact, that hero girl is a useless girl who couldn't do anything by herself!

Which is even for cooking and washing clothes she cannot do. And on our way to the demon lord's castle in the depths of the dungeon, all she did was get scared, cry, spoiled, and sulk! ...like a kitten!

Troublesome!!

But, we are not alone in the journey.

Where apart from me as a first-class mage from the northern church of the human kingdom. There is also an elven princess from the eastern elf rainforest. And a dwarf prince from the southern dwarves' black mountains. Who also joined us in the group's extermination of the demon lord. And the good news, both are individuals who are good at some group needs. So in our travels, the group's need that left for me to do was only washing cloth, and of course, I wash it by magic!

Yet, speaking of the tradition of summoning heroes. Which meant to exterminate demon lords that appeared. ... to be honest until now I still thought that it was all stupid, stupid!!

I mean, ... even though we didn't do that pointless hero summoning. In any way, if I were to dash into the dungeon myself and hit the demon lord head-on. I'm sure my magic skills, of course, would be able to do it without the slightest difficulty!

Especially after I was asked to overcome the war by the king. I managed to reconcile the war, and I did it three times in three world wars. What turned out after I use the uncovered spell. The main cause of the war was the interests of several syndicates. Whose scheming to cover up a massive corruption through the military budget!!

Heeh ... I can't understand how the kings thought working!

Either way, this is a bad situation for me from various sides.

"Heeeh…, how unlucky I am!"

...but wait, speaking of bad luck. Aren't these pants that I'm wearing are pants that have sealed with a lucky spell by the rainbow goddess?

Yes! ...no doubt these are the shorts my grandfather gave me when I was a kid!

Yet, isn't everything that happened to me was unlucky?

... ah, no, no, no!! If I remember ..., the accidental boulder under my pedestal. Which end up protecting me from this crowd of undead, wasn't this a stroke of luck!!

Very nice!! This means that there is still hope!

With these lucky shorts that grandpa gave a long time ago, the situation is still not hopeless!!

With these pants, and my magic stone, and I can still save this world!!

How lucky I am!!!

"THANK YOU, GRANPA!!!!"

Krucuk~ Krucuk~ Krucuk~

Ah, I screaming again… make me hungry~

But this is a good sign, I have to cheer up!!

In that case, the first thing I have to do to get out of this state is…

Then I looking around for something that might save me.

Well to my east there is an arid desert, which doesn't look like it's going to provide a solution. Then to the north were rugged mountains. Which were too far for me to reach through this crowd of undead, and that meant no solution either. And in the west are trails and forests? ... also does not provide a solution. And the last one in the south is, hmm... what is a settlement? No, it's a city, yes it's a city!! But it was so far away that it was impossible to even scream for help there...

" IN THE END, THERE IS NO SOLUTION, ISN'T IT!!!"

Groooan ... groooan ...~

Hey, what? Why are you looking at me as if mocking me like that!

Why would the undead even mock my misfortune with such a face, huh?~

Uh, unlucky me!!~

However, something I didn't expect suddenly appeared and started to distract the undead's focus from their attempts to reach me...

Which were the figures of two young girls in clothes I had never seen before. Walking towards us while ringing a bell in the hand of one of them.

The small bell the size of a fist rang as it caught the attention of the undead. As they solidified their grip on each ax they were holding. And as one by one, the undead reached their range of strike. The two axes cut clean the necks of the undead until one by one the undead fell down with their heads flying into the air.

The two girls, who were probably even younger than my 25-year-old self. As they walked in leisure. They slashing down the undead that was about to attack and swarming over the two of them.

It was as if time was moving slow. The golden elf hair that tied back, of the girl who carried the bell while continuing to kill the undead. And the red dwarf hair that braided to the side of the shoulders of the girl beside her. Who was tireless slashing at the undead?

When the two of them were in front of me, I was unconscious to descend from the large rock that protected me. And so I spoke out my first impression on their stature which is so unusual to me.

"What small chests, you both have…"

.

.

.

"Huh?!!!!!!"

In instant, they both threw one foot into my chest and push me to the big rock behind me. Then immediately the two of them slammed their axes against the boulder, in line with where my neck was.

Time and time again, with the gaze of a beast the two of them seemed to devour me right now.

"GYAAAAAAA~!!!!! STOP IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT~!!!!!"

Clang!! Clang!!

Clang!! Clang!!

Clang!! Clang!!

Clang!! Clang!!

It was as if I was about to get butchered, there was nothing I could do but scream in terror. Terror at each blow of the ax which continued to crush the boulder behind me, while aiming for the middle of my neck. Which as they continued to do so, the two of them started talking to each other.

"Hey Joe~, don't you think this geeky boy has a desire to die at our hands soon ?"

"Hmm ~, yes, well yes Rita, ... if I wasn't misheard, right after painstaking we rescued him, he even said THAT on two sweet girls like us !!

... and don't call me 'Joe'!"

"NOOOOOOO~!!! I AM SORRYYYYYYY~!! PLEASE, FORGIVE MY LIFE~!! "

.

.

.

"... Sigh~! It's exhausting to strenuous exercise after a long time "

The yellow-haired girl, stood back up while wiping the sweat from her forehead.

"..Haaah~, this strenuous activity doesn't work for me!!"

Meanwhile, the red-haired girl straightened her legs on the ground. While she looking up into the sky.

...and I, while shivering in fear, at the momentary terror that had smashed my mind to pieces now. Believe me! Not even the orge in the world I came from would be able to match the terror they gave.

In contrast to the timid hero girl, I have back there. I've never heard of a human that can be this strong with physical strength alone, even in my original world.

"So… who are you, geeky boy?

Don't tell me you're a nobody because we both saw it from our cabin there! When you appeared, with this boulder. After a glowing circle drawn right above where you appeared!"

The yellow-haired girl approached while asking, and brought her face into a line with my eyes.

"Yes!! Who are you!! Are you the mastermind behind the zombie outbreak in the world?

Because of the way you appeared. It looks like the dark circles that appeared in the sky when the zombie plague first hit the world!"

And so are the red-haired girls. Who participated in bringing their faces closer as if to intimidate me with their cute eyes!

But wait, did I hear something wrong?

" Wait a minute, the 'zom...bie'? What is it, I'm hearing about it for the first time!"

"Huh, are you kidding me? Have you forgotten that mindless creature that was about to surround you?!"

"Huh, 'about to surround'? Are you BLIND? They 'already' surrounded me, not 'about to'!!"

Cring!! ...

In an instant the two axes that had placed to the ground. By the two of them, were moved in a flash and stopped right next to my neck, with such perfect precision.

"Hegh~!!"

"Mind using your tongue carefully if you don't want to get your head separated from your body, okay!"

Both of them showed their sweet smiles, but, I could only feel terror from those smiles. A terror so dark shrouded the vision. Which was even more oppressive than the Lich demon king's dark magic in the world I came from.

Oh God, save me~

Thus I pray from the deepest recesses of my heart.

Well, let's pray for Magnus's head safety to still be intact till the end of the story ...
