Volume 3 Chapter 37 (2/2)

The wounds on the sudden snake suddenly recovered in the blink of an eye

The undead snake’s special characteristic is its abnoreneration The speed of its recovery is so fearsome, it’s alical beast that’s not undead has undead in its name

Moreover, because the undead snake isn’t an undead-type ic has no effect on it Despite that, its recovery speed is far greater than that of ghouls Knowing that, I could i with it to be a pain

“Fortunately, it’s at least not venoical beast that requires several people to cast ic on it to stop its movements At which point, it then needs to be beaten repeatedly until it dies…” [Ryouma]

I more or less have a plan to deal with it, but for now, let’s try fighting it noro ahead and useI should use for various reasons

“Shaa!!” [Undead Snake]

The healed snake ca atwas the sa that, I clad ic battle technique and the water-attribute ic power This time, my cut went in deeper

“Kishaaaa!!” [Undead Snake]

The wound this time didn’t bleed like before, and instead the wound closed up frozen The undead snake’s voice was also much more pained this time compared to before, but…

“Shaaa!” [Undead Snake]

The undead snake juain My attack just now had so it just pissed it off” [Ryouma]

The undead snake ferociously bit and twirled about It even cli from all directions as it pleased It could do that because it lived here The hoe its attacks while I slashed back at it with my chill-clad blade, but no matter how many times I cut, I couldn’t inflict a fatal wound on it At most, I could only slon its recovery

Looks like cutting it just isn’t sufficient…

As I thought that, I dodged the undead snake that had just tried to twirl itself around me, and took an overhead stance with my katana I held the sword out toward the snake as I reinforced my whole body and my katana with ki

“Ha!” [Ryoued it, and slashed down at its neck with all th As my blade sunk 60cm into its neck, I successfully decapitated it When I use ki, I could cut even with the guard on the sword, so I thought it ht work Without ki, I wouldn’t even be able to cut with the guard of a sword, so cutting the snake in touldn’t be possible, right?

“Shaa!? Shaaa!!!” [Ryouly, the cut head was still alive And the body started writhing about I thought to crush its head, but I had to take a step back in order to not be caught up by its body Then I took a look at its head

“…What’s going on with its body?” [Ryouenerate its body from its open wound I could still so i like this is… This really isn’t an undead, right?

“I’ve heard that they’re stronger than the C or B Rank ical beasts, but whether it’s this undead snake or Rheinbach-saical beasts are monsters” [Ryouma]

While I was duenerated its body And it was now the sao

“Fortunately, it at least didn’t regenerate its head frouess I’ll have to do it ‘Exchange’” [Ryouma]

I sheathed back ic, Exchange Suddenly, a 14- silver-colored short spear appeared within e, is able to transfer nearby objects And being a more practical application of Pickup, it's able to take an iteinally, I wanted thisan object I had with soht now I can only take out objects at ic I do one day hope to coh

“This is the end!” [Ryouma]

I ran toward the snake with the short spear in hand The undead snake ary ofits sickle-shaped neck several tiain

It’s an attack I’ve seen ed its attack as I clad my short spear with ki Then I thrusted that spear into the undead snake’s body

Just that wouldn’t be able to stop the undead snake, but this is exactly what I’ve been aied the snake that tried to twine itself around me

The undead snake tried to chase after round And its body started writhing about just like it did a while ago when I lopped off its head

When I saw that, I knew that my trump card had worked After that, I checked up on the snake, and when I confirmed that it was dead, I retrieved h now” [Ryouma]

As I called out to my spear to thank it, the forround It then turned back into its original appearance, an iron slime

What I used just noas the iron slime spear But what defeated the undead snake wasn’t just the iron sli out of the wound that the iron slime spear had just left It’s nor out of the snake isn’t blood, but a bloody slime

I had ordered an iron slime to create a hollow iron spear And then in the hollow portion of that spear, I had ordered a bloody slime to wait With the iron slime’s natural hardness coupled with the reinforceh And I pierced the foe’s body with the spear, upon which the iron sliain The bloody slime in the hollow portion of the spear then entered the blood vessels of the eneh its open wound

After that, the bloody sliuess it does work even against A Rank h…” [Ryou, but it’s quite brutal And chances are, it can kill anything regardless of if its beast or huical beasts, so there h it, but for theas I’m able to pierce with the spear, I should be able to kill the target

At the very least, it’s shown itself to be very effective when I tested it against the goblins and other various ht of it

But while it’s efficient, using it too much will dull my skill Moreover, I also can’t use it in front of other huets out, and a villain finds out about it makes me shi+ver

One thing's for sure though: this skill is definitely my trump card

As I decided that in my heart, I retrieved the undead snake’s corpse, and then retired for the day Today’s been really tiring…
