“Turn Undead!”

When Aqua’s magic hit the zombie dragon, it gave one of its voiceless screams and vanished in a glow of light. You could sure count on her to deal with the undead, if nothing else.

I was just about to thank her, when…

…?

Wait a second, now that I think about it, she’s the one who brought that zombie dragon here.

I looked at Darkness, who was laid out on the ground; Yunyun and Megumin were rushing over to her.

“Darkness! Hang in there, Darkness! It’s just a flesh wound—open your eyes!”

“Megumin, don’t shake her! W-w-w-we have to stay calm!”

If Aqua would have just woken up and purified the darn thing, Darkness wouldn’t have been knocked out trying to protect us.

“Heh-heh, it looks like even a zombie dragon is no match for me. Kazuma, I think a little praise and maybe even some worship are in orderrrrghhh?!”

I wordlessly grabbed Aqua’s cheeks with both hands and applied Drain Touch.

“Hey, just what do you think you’re doing?! I can’t fight back when you ambush me like that!” Aqua swept my hands away, her eyes full of tears.

“Well, why do you think I ambushed you?! Look at the state Darkness is in! You drew that zombie dragon here. The least you could do is wake up when we shout at you! I’m going to drain enough vitality from you to compensate for the sleep I lost standing guard, you hear me?”

“What?! N-no way! You caught me by surprise once, but you won’t get me with a little Drain Touch next time. I’ve even resisted a drain from an actual Lich! Just try me. I’ll show you what I can do!”

Just how self-centered can a person be?!

I decided to ignore Aqua and the weird pose she was striking; instead, I went over to Darkness and used Kindle to get myself some light to check on her. While I had been trying to wake Aqua up, Darkness had taken a direct hit from the monster…

“Heal!” Aqua intoned, and then she continued. “That’s my Darkness. Zombie dragons can’t use their breath weapons, but immortality takes the cap off their physical strength, so they hit much harder than a living dragon, see? You’re lucky not to be in a million pieces after a direct hit.”

Come to think of it, it was unusual for Darkness to just go under like that. I guess it only underlined how tough the monsters out here on the front line really were.

…And if they had zombie dragons, did that mean they had living dragons, too…?

No, no. The monster guide listed zombie dragons, but it didn’t mention living ones, so we would be fine in that regard… I hoped.

Beside Darkness, her armor dented and scuffed, Megumin and Yunyun were keeping a worried watch.

…And that was when I noticed it.

“Well, great. With the magical light from that battle and Kindle and everything, a bunch of monsters are heading this way. My Sense Foe is going nuts. No choice—we’ve got to move. Aqua, I’ll carry your and Darkness’s baggage, so you carry Darkness.
