Magical Love: Learn To Love In Another World

Chapter 89: Zombies… Zombies… Zombies…

"Ew! Disgusting! Why are there so many!" I complained. I mean it was really nasty. I know I have dealt with some nasty things but this was just beyond any of that. The worst part is, that just like in the movies back on Earth if you get scratched or bit by these things, you will get infected and need to use a decurse spell to get rid of it. We are lucky that Marsil is so good at light magic. Which includes healing, dispel, and decurse, otherwise, we would already be walking around as zombies.

I know that these things are slow but it is when they come at you from all sides in a group that is an issue. And you can't kill them easily either. All your attacks have to be straight at their brains, which, along with the already horrid stench they give off, slicing into their brain and removing your sword is like opening a box that compressed and amplified the smell to its max. I almost lost my lunch many times.

"Stick with it Rei, this seems to be the last group!" Able said trying to make the situation at least look a little bit brighter. 

With every twist and turn of my body, I was swinging my sword around with me slicing into zombie after zombie. I just hoped we could take a break soon. We had been at it for hours now. All I have been hearing is "Oooo!!! Aghhh!!! OooRaaaar," and many other moans and groans that zombies make. 

"Finally done!" Marsil let out a sigh seeing the last of the zombies fall to the ground. "Thank god I was almost out of mana." 

I watched as Marsil pulled out our map and marked off another location on it. I do not know why but the system seems to be taking longer than it had said to upgrade. So I am hoping to see something cool happen when it comes back or else making this area out would be much easier. I sat down next to Able and rested my head on his shoulder while hugging his waist. I was a bit tired and just wanted to sleep. The second floor was chilly and we couldn't start a fire or we would bring more zombies to us, so the only warmth I could get was by body heat. That meant during breaks, this was my normal position. Sometimes Able would wrap his arm around my waist or rub my back which would make me feel a bit more secure since this place was still very scary to me! 

It should be fine for a girl to rely on her man right? I am not sure about this since I really have no experience, but as far as I had researched in my previous life, this was a very common thing for a girl to rely on the man she was with. Even if it is not fine, I do not care. Right now Able is my shining light in this zombie infested hell. 

"Gwaaaar!" Another zombie showed up!

"Why!" I cried as I slowly made my way to my feet. I looked at the zombie and wished I knew necromancy so I could just summon a bunch of zombies or skeletons of my own, so I would not need to go near them. But who would have thought the idea in my head would create a black magic circle under my feet?

"What, what is happening!?" Sam yelled out in surprise. But his yell actually notified the surrounding zombies making Sam panic. "I didn't mean to!"

"Summoning magic!?" Marsil looked at the black magic circle and her eyes went wide when she saw zombies rising up from it. It was not just one or two, no, there were over a hundred of them!

"What the hell did I do!? I only thought about it in my head!" I had no idea how I ended up casting a spell, I just thought up out of the blue in my anger of needing to fight the zombies myself. And now before me was my very own zombie army. I knew they were under my control since I could feel a link to them. I looked at the zombies coming towards us, raised my hand, and stumbled my words as I said: "Go!"

At my command my zombies made moaning and groaning sounds as they rushed forward at a full sprint and began attacking the enemy zombies. Able and the rest looked at me with wide eyes as I looked at them with the same expression. "Your guess is as good as mine!"

"Does this mean we can still take a break?" Marsil was the first to speak. I looked over at the enemy zombies that were being brutally beaten and nodded my head. "I think we are fine..."

"I will say this now. No one is to say a word about Rei summoning zombies. If you do, I will kill you myself!" Able's sudden threat filled our ears. I looked at Able who walked over to me and pulled me into a hug. "Whatever you do, never mention this to anyone, or else we will have trouble with the holy church and the Principality of The Holy Goddess Seil." 

Hearing those names to me was foreign but I saw a drastic reaction from the others as I looked over Able's shoulder. Their faces paled just from hearing these names which confused me even more! Was this some kind of cult that would kill anyone who accidentally summoned zombies? Would they want my power to take over the world? 

"Umm Able why is it that I can not say a word of this?" I finally asked as I pushed my ridiculous thoughts out of my head. 

"Let's sit first, it will take some time to explain. There is not much written about the Church and the Principality since they keep everything about themselves a secret. I only know what I know from what my father and mother told me." Able said as he sat down on the ground. I went to sit next to him but he pulled me into his lap and hugged me from behind causing me to blush. 

"Let's start from the beginning..."
