Chapter 284.1. Meeting Someone Unexpected
I continued to defeat the zombies with ease. Slow zombies were no match, and even the High Zombies’ abilities couldn’t stand up to me.
The young girl swiftly dispatched the zombies, not allowing them to graze her.
“Combat isn’t just determined by levels only!”
I exclaimed with a chuckle. I deflected punches with my open hand and shattered the High Zombie’s knee with a sidekick. By performing a somersault, I secured her fighting space, and swiftly struck with a palm strike from the side, shattering them from the inside.
Amidst the struggle, I skillfully evaded the zombies trying to grab me, shifting my aim with a step as the group dispersed. I moved between them, grasped their necks, snapped them, and kicked their spines out to defeat them.
With no sweat on my brow, I had been battling the horde of zombies for about 2 hours since it began. I single-handedly annihilated all of them, over a thousand in number.
“Phew, I think I got them all.”
I look around to confirm no movement, wiping the sweat that had started to trickle down my forehead. I felt the sudden wave of fatigue but decided to ignore it.
The defeated zombies turned to ash and transformed into light orbs, flying up into the sky. The cotton candy clusters wrapped around Mii-chan’s arm.
-Got 10 wafers-
“Considering there were nearly a thousand of them, that’s a pretty substantial amount of cotton candy. And wafers? Some tasty-looking snacks dropped too. Satisfied, satisfied!”
I happily bite the cotton candy, munching it all. Sweet treats were a welcome relief for my tired body.
“But now that I’ve defeated them all… It looks like Tamamo-chan isn’t here.”
All the zombies wore togas and resembled ancient people, with deep facial features that seemed Western.
“Moreover… those light orbs aren’t human souls.”
I squinted at the many glowing orbs floating in the sky. They looked like the fleetingly faded light of fireflies, but they were actually much more powerful enough to be visualized.
They can’t be human souls. They don’t possess the brightness to be visualized like this. Some souls can be visualized. But that’s different.
“In other words, it’s the soul of a god. Although it seems quite weak…”
As I finished the last bite of my cotton candy, my fatigue faded, and the pain I had felt moments ago disappeared. It seemed it had a potion-like effect.
“Now, let’s check my status.”

The numbers displayed were indeed quite halfway than the normal.
Hero is a special job that unlocks after mastering 3 composite jobs. It can use swords and magic, and its exclusive martial arts and magic are strong.
“But you know, Hero isn’t that versatile. Its skills and magic are strong, but the MP consumption is intense, and in terms of unique skills, Ninja is better.”
And for fighting zombies, it can use skills like [Decapitate] and [Stealth], and with its agility-focused stats, it’s more practical.
Hero could use [Limit Break], so it might be better in short-term battles.
“Nevertheless, it might be thanks to being a master of all martial arts and magic that I could defeat the zombies, so it’s fine.”
Feeling completely refreshed, I decided it was time to look for Tamamo in earnest. I stretched and tried to muster up some energy when suddenly I heard a voice.
“Amazing, you. I can only offer words of admiration.”
Applause followed the voice. It belonged to a seemingly handsome young man. I immediately assumed a defensive posture.
“Who are you? Do you have business with Mii-chan?”
I looked around, but there was no sign of anyone amidst the broken furniture, shattered stone walls, and heaps of ash.
“Oh no, I’m impressed that you can kill a god. You, the lovely one.”
“The white of an egg is delicious too!”
“Well, I’d like to know where exactly the lovely yolk is, but you seem pretty composed. Here, right here.”
A single light orb descended from the sky, and the ash gathered and formed a vaguely human shape.
Judging by the tone and voice, it was likely a man. He sounded a bit conceited but also seemed to understand my jokes, which was a good sign.
The slender humanoid figure had black hollows resembling caves for eyes and a mouth. It clapped its hands like a paper doll.
With each clap, ash fell, creating an eerie atmosphere.
“Now that I’ve finished the zombies, is it time for a mid-boss battle?”
With her guard up, she spoke, and the ash figure shrugged and shook its head.
“Lady, you’re quite impatient. I’m different from those riff-raff zombies. I possess a proper consciousness.”
“Oh, really? Can I ask your name, then? I’m Loki! A trickster and a cotton candy lover!”
I gave a greeting for the time being. After all, he seemed like a reasonably normal guy in this world covered in ash.
However, as soon as Mi-chan introduced herself, the ash figure burst into laughter, clutching its stomach.
“Ahahaha, Loki, huh? This is a masterpiece! I’ve never seen a ‘Loki’ with such a cute appearance. He’s good at shapeshifting, but I’ve never seen him transform into a little girl!”
“Well, maybe you’re seeing one now?”
I pouted as he laughed at me. I can’t appreciate the excessive amusement.
