NOVPUBLitty had been thinking for a long time. How to make the most of her limited magical power. And the answer was to use a long weapon to reach her enemy and then utilize the Saint Weapon Enchantment which granted Holy Attribute to weapons just before the weapon hit her opponent using as little magic power as possible with pinpoint accuracy.
It was a method that Litty’s mind had come up with while trying to conserve her magic power, but to someone else watching her, the technique itself was so advanced that no ordinary person would be able to replicate it. After all, it needed an extraordinary control of magic.
“If I could reduce consumption a little more…” (Litty)
“Myan…”
“Myan is sensitive to the nature of living things. You were confused when we encountered the undead, right?” (Litty)
“Myan, Myan…”
Myan nodded her head. Litty confirmed this and now gently patted Myan’s head.
“Myan, the monsters on this ship are a little different from normal monsters, but that’s all about it. Don’t worry.” (Litty)
“Myan…Myan!”
For Litty, the undead were just another monster which could be defeated with sufficient preparations. This notion may not be to everyone’s liking, but it didn’t matter.
“Come on, let’s keep going! We are now in an unexplored area!” (Litty)
“Myan-myan!”
Litty resumed her search, her spear swinging wildly. She was not thinking about whether she could get out.
–want…
The mastermind who divided Litty now watched her quietly for a while.

“WHY, WAS, I, CHOSEN, NAGAAAH…?” (Undead)
It was Roma who finished off the ghost of Baroque. Eventually, Baroque’s neck was long enough to encircle Roma and the others.
As an undead, Baroque’s strength was not much different from the young man’s, and with Kuufa’s help, Roma was able to achieve the same result as Litty but with more ease.
“…Even if you weren’t chosen, the sailors in the harbor were counting on you. I feel a little sorry for you because you can’t see what’s actually in front of you.” (Roma)
As someone who had also a similar single-minded approach, Roma witnessed Baroque’s final moments. She couldn’t help but project it as a future for herself that could have been.
Each time Roma realized this, she thanked Litty.
“Everyone… sma, na, kah…” (Undead)
Before he could finish his words, Baroque completely disappeared. It wasn’t that they were not sentimental about it, it was simply that not only Roma, but also Kuufa, had their own thoughts about him.
“Let’s move on….Litty-san would have done the same.” (Undead)
Roma agreed and took the lead.
The ship was illuminated by flickering lights, but it was different from before. The undead have not attacked.
“…It’s so quiet.” (Roma)
“Unlike monsters, it’s difficult to understand the habits of the undead… That’s why they scare me.” (Kuufa)
“Kuufa-chan, you study a lot. It’s important to find Litty, but do you know how to end this grudge?” (Roma)
“I think that with a grudge as big as this one, there’s probably a source.” (Kuufa)
“A source?” (Roma)
“A strong undead usually attracts other undead.” (Kuufa)
“I see. That makes sense.” (Roma)
Just as they had found a ray of hope, the lights behind Roma and the others faded out from the back of the room. Darkness swallowed up the area where lights vanished.
“Let’s run!” (Roma)
They started to run as fast as they could, but the speed of the approaching darkness was far greater. In less than a few seconds, the darkness covered Roma and the others.
