They continued deeper into the castle.
They encountered yet another zombie girl. This time … there were five of them!
Seiji gripped his magical sword and activated his defense breaking mode, preparing for battle.
He wasn't going to fight against five alone. He was going to fight together with his companions.
Three … two … one.
* Boom! *
Seiji and Matsutani simultaneously broke through the paper door and entered a spacious room.
The pudgy middle-aged man waved his hand and shot out five balls of light that he had prepared beforehand!
The zombies instantly reacted and blocked the attacks with their weapons.
* Boom boom boom … * There were explosions at almost the same time.
Three balls of light were blocked. Two of them hit their targets!
The two zombie girls that were hit started glowing yellow and were temporarily immobilized.
Seiji charged at one zombie girl and slashed down with his sword! He successfully sliced it in half.
* Whoosh! * A cold light pierced through the air.
It was the spearhead of a spear.
The other zombie girl nearby was using a spear as her weapon. After she blocked the ball of light, she immediately attacked Seiji. Her spear moved like a dragon as it pierced straight towards his head!
* Boom! *
The attack was blocked by the [Evolved Mana Barrier].
The zombie girl pulled out her spear and stabbed again!
Seiji blocked and retreated with his sword.
At the same time, the other two zombies that could still move rushed towards Matsutani. They were both using twin swords and a katana. They were both incredibly fast!
Matsutani activated his second spell that he had prepared beforehand the moment they reached him. A large diamond-shaped spell formation instantly appeared on the ground!
The twin swords and katana girls' bodies trembled as their movements changed and they tumbled to the ground.
The next instant, a white demon appeared and heavily smashed the two zombies into the ground with a giant hammer!
The scene was rather tragic.
If it had been a living person that was smashed into the ground instead of a zombie, it would have been a perfect scene.
Miyabi and Yuuko used their magic crossbows to shoot at the zombie girl that was imprisoned.
Although most of the arrows didn't hit their targets, they still caused some damage.
After the ball of light faded, the zombie girl raised her longbow and shot arrows at Miyabi and Yuuko!
* Shing! *
A magical shield appeared in front of them. A blue barrier of light blocked the arrows.
It was Nomura.
The male university student's face was rather pale, but he had a resolute expression and didn't seem afraid at all.
The longbow-wielding girl continuously shot arrows!
Nomura blocked with his shield and did his best to suppress the fear in his heart. He stood firmly in front of his two female companions and didn't move a single step.
* Boom! *
One of Miyabi's arrows hit the longbow-wielding girl's head.
The cat ears on her head straightened as she concentrated. Her eyes shone with a sharp light, clearly reflecting the figure of her target.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The second shot, the third shot, the fourth shot … Four consecutive shots hit the target's head!
The longbow-wielding zombie girl fell backwards onto the ground.
Then, the demonic hammer smashed down on her!
Ya-chan beautifully finished off Big Sister Cat.
Screech!!
Seiji endured the shattering of his shield and slashed at the zombie girl with the spear.
Five members of the enemy team were wiped out.
No one on his side was injured!
"Beautiful, everyone did a good job," Seiji praised sincerely.
The first use of the strategy they had discussed was more successful than expected.
Nomura and the others all smiled. They were happy for their first group battle victory.
"Ishihara-san was so amazing just now! You suddenly became so accurate, "Yuuko praised.
"It was just a coincidence … we should first thank Nomura-san for protecting us," Miyabi told him.
"I was only standing there with my shield," Nomura stated. "The truly amazing ones are the three in front of us."
"Indeed, Harano-kun is super cool. Matsutani-senpai is also really cool. Ya-chan as well." Yuuko paused for a moment. "I feel like I'm the most useless one here."
"That's right. That's why Hashimoto-san must work hard and serve everyone as a maid!" Matsutani had a serious expression. "Why don't you give me a massage right now …"
* Boom! * Seiji elbowed the pudgy middle-aged man to shut up.
"That joke was a little too much. Hashimoto-san, please don't mind. "
Yuuko blinked at this.
"If it's a massage, sure. But my technique isn't that great, so I might hurt you." The author smiled.
Seiji and the others were rendered speechless.
"Cough, I'll stop joking around. Let's continue." Seiji changed the topic. "You fought beautifully just now. But, that doesn't mean that the following battles will go so smoothly. Everyone, please remain cautious."
Although these five zombies were powerful, they weren't at the same level as the previous zombies. Nor did they have capes and helmets like the previous zombies.
It seemed that the previous zombies were the main characters. There weren't many of them, so Seiji could relax a little. Still, he still needed to be careful.
…
Imai Yoshida's story "Transforming into a smartphone and falling into another world" was a story about an otaku who mysteriously transformed into a smartphone and traveled to another world. He was then picked up by a beautiful female domain lord who was in a bad situation. He then assisted her in developing her territory and enjoyed all sorts of gentlemanly benefits.
The judges concluded this story by saying, "There are many problems with this story. But overall, it's a charming story. With some careful polishing, it might become a best-selling story."
Wanhua Summer Night knew nothing about this.
She knew that Seiji would be attending the Thunder Bunko Newcomer Award Ceremony tonight. But, before she had time to go online and check on the awards, she received a request for help from Shika Kagura.
Summer Night immediately met up with Hitaka and Rona. Just as they were about to think of a way to save Seiji, they were enveloped by a black mist!
They then discovered that they were in a mystical realm filled with mystical buildings … no, it seemed like a soul realm.
"A mystical realm filled with cluster amaryllis flowers. This is a place that the Awakened will enter when they Awaken.
It's possible that someone Awakened at the ceremony and got Seiji and the others involved … and now we're involved as well.
Hitaka, Rona, stay on guard. I'm going to cast a spell to investigate. "
While Summer Night was casting a spell, numerous white skeletons appeared and attacked them!
"Don't even think about harming Grand Mistress Kagura!"
"Meow."
The red-haired Spirit-branded Retainer and the cat girl Spirit-branded Retainer fought together. In less than a minute, they destroyed all the attacking skeletons!
Shika Kagura silently watched from the side. He didn't even need to unsheathe his demon sword.
After casting a spell for a while, Summer Night looked towards the domain lord's castle in the distance.
"Something within that castle is interfering with my spell, preventing me from contacting Seiji. I need to eliminate this possibility."
The girls immediately set out after confirming their target.
Large numbers of skeletons appeared from all directions and attacked them!
But, just like in the Musou video game series, the small monsters that attacked the player's character were all defeated.
At the highest floor of the domain lord's castle.
A gray-clothed person silently stood there, watching the beautiful girls fighting amongst the skeletons.
It was time for him to leave.
Still, even though this experiment wasn't that important, he was still displeased that it was interrupted like this.
'Before I leave, I'll make it more difficult for them.'
The gray-clothed person thought to himself as he turned around and walked into the shadowy black mist.
At the Moon Bunny Eatery.
The restaurant manager was currently chopping vegetables in the kitchen when he suddenly stopped.
He turned around with something flashing in his eyes.
