The Death Mage That Doesnt Want A Fourth Time 42 (1/2)

「Hogyah, hogyah!」

The thing that was crying like a baby was no normal baby

It had blonde hair that looked as if old, and skin as white as the rock that this royal castle of Talosheiular ears and there was a short tail growing from its bottom

Incidentally, pig-beast-people apparently didn’t exist in Lambda

「Before we knew it, the Live-Dead had turned to ashes and this child was crying」(Basdia)

「I see」(Vandalieu)

Vandalieu ca fro a baby in her arms

It seemed that while Vandalieu was in Doran’s Aquatic Caverns, the fetus had developed sufficiently and the Live-Dead had run out of Mana

「Well, I don’t really care about the Live-Dead I was planning to bury it after it served its purpose anyway」(Vandalieu)

Vandalieu turned the ashes into a Goleather the heart but no soul It had existed only to nurture its reborn self in its uterus

「So this child was born safely, but… I’ve been troubled because it won’t stop crying」(Basdia)

「Hogyah! Hogyah!」(Baby)

「Can I see the baby for a bit?」(Vandalieu)

「Of course」(Basdia)

Vandalieu took her in his ar and stared at Vandalieu

Vandalieu observed her as she gazed at him

「… Mhmm, it does resemble her」(Vandalieu)

Its face resembled that of the Live-Dead and its spirit, and it had a huirl It was not a noble Orc whose race only had males

「I’ood look at you, so bear with me for a moment」(Vandalieu)

「Uu」(Baby)

Using【Spirit Form Transformation】to turn a part of his body into spirit foran count, the shape of her bones and the like were different from Orcs; they were close to a human’s

It was still impossible to tell whether her body would function the same as a human’s But she was clearly not an Orc or noble Orc

But it couldn’t be said that she was coolden hair as the noble Orcs, and her eyes were blue And her ears and tail made it very clear that she wasn’t entirely human

She was still just a baby; it was possible that she ht develop more inhuman characteristics as she developed

Was she a half-noble Orc?

「Can you see your status?」(Vandalieu)

「Amu~」(Baby)

For now, it seerily shout,「This isn’t what you proe appearance

「Ury?」(Vandalieu)

「Van, I don’t think a baby would be able to understand what you’re saying…?」(Basdia)

As Vandalieu turned to face Basdia – or tried to, the baby put him in a headlock

She was unbelievably strong for a child With his head being held in place by both her arms, he couldn’t move at all

「I had ht that she ht be able to understand」(Vandalieu)

「I see But I don’t think she understands If she did, she would have listened toand kept crying until you arrived, Van」(Basdia)

「Then it ains her memories」(Vandalieu)

Vandalieu’sreborn in Lambda But that was because it had been the work of Rodcorte as a God, while Vandalieu had used a new technique for the first time to carry out this baby’s reincarnation

It ht take several months or even years for her memories to return

Well, several months had passed after her death before Vandalieu used her spirit for the reincarnation, so it was definitely possible that her , however

「Well, I’ve asked Bilde and the others to provide milk in advance, so let’s head over to theht, Basdia?」(Vandalieu)

「Me?」(Basdia)

「Yes, you’re pregnant Please ic Item that protects the baby」(Vandalieu)

「Is that true, Van?!」(Basdia)

「It’s true, congratulations Make sure you coress」(Vandalieu)

「Yeah!」(Basdia)

And so two auspicious events were celebrated at once

Vandalieu dried koht with the reborn girl

「Now then, I’ll begin the experiment」(Vandalieu)

「Ai」(Baby)

He slowly applied【Withering】on the koing】

If he made a mistake it would dry out too , it would turn into powder, so he needed to be very careful

He continued controlling his spells for just aa headache and fever It turned out perfect, so he stopped his spells and retrieved the dried kombu

「Now then, time to actually taste it」(Vandalieu)

「Ai」(Baby)

He threw the koical stove he had found in the ruins and turned the stove on

Dashi+ began to come out steadily

He reh dashi+ had come out before the water started to boil and scooped some out with a ladle that the blacksmith Datara had made for him He placed it onto a small plate, cooled it and tasted it

「Mhood dashi+」(Vandalieu)

Satisfied, he added ingredients like wakaetables and then dissolved miso in it to make miso soup

「It’s turned out well」(Vandalieu)

「Uu, uu」(Baby)

「I think it’s a little too early for you to be drinking miso soup, Pauvina」(Vandalieu)

「Au…」(Pauvina)

Pauvina… the Live-Dead who had been reborn as a half-noble Orc seemed dejected, so Vandalieu co successfully made kombu dashi+

Applying the【Aging】spell that was originally intended to age living things to kill the it, he was able to apply twenty-five years’ worth of drying in a single roundbreaking discovery

It was a process that shortened a twenty-five-year-long process to one minute Incidentally, the reason it enty-five years was because Vandalieu remembered that ko had been treated as a her-quality product than normal koed the umami content in the kombu

He had no spell that could confirm whether the umami content had really increased and Vandalieu had never tried h-quality ko the possibility that Vandalieu was justan assumption here

「Au」(Pauvina)

Though Vandalieu had originally thought that Pauvina hadn’t regained her ained them to some extent immediately after her birth

But as Vandalieu had feared, they were very broken memories and she hadn’t even been able to remember her own name

She only remembered that her corpse had been turned into a Live-Dead and that Vandalieu had saved her The latter could be referred to as Vandalieu using her, but she felt thankful towards him and was emotionally attached to him

「Mmuh…」(Pauvina)

But even after regaining soe was still that of a child Unlike people who had been reincarnated like Vandalieu, she was simply a child who remembered a little about her previous life

She would develop and become an adult for the second time

… She would surely grow to be large At three ht was almost the sa into account the fact that Vandalieu had a s incredibly quickly

Was this because she had some noble Orc blood in her?

As Pauvina lifted Vandalieu into the air, he wondered,「A to be some kind of mad scientist who creates new species?」

Nuaza and the other titans sees like,「It is just like how the Goddess Vida gave birth to us; it is truly divine work!」He would soon becoet rid of the title of “Prophesized Holy Son”

Vandalieu thought that if he wasn’t the Holy Son, it would be nice if the Goddess could give another prophecy or so to say so

「So far, everything is going well」(Vandalieu)

「Uu?」(Pauvina)

「Mh but the katsuobushi+, I suppose」(Vandalieu)

Pauvina was developing well Vandalieu didn’t kno long it would take for her to become an adult, but it would likely be ten years at most She didn’t see along well

Since he had used her and reincarnated her, Vandalieu had to take responsibility for her new life, so he planned to take good care of her

Basdia’s pregnancy had been discovered at the sa well She had only been pregnant for threeher, but the Magic Ite its effects with no problem

It was even better that she liked the piercing

Vandalieu had once again put a halt on his Dungeon-clearing so he could take care of Pauvina and Basdia, but he was still going into the Devil’s Nests that were close enough toHe assisted those training to acquire the【Chant Revocation】skill, played Reversi and Jenga andwell

The only thing he was struggling asfood didn’t exist in Lambda

There was dried meat so Vandalieu had assumed that smoked foods existed, but this wasn’t the case Not even bacon, haes or wieners existed in this world, let alone roast beef

He had asked Kachia and the others, but dried meat in this world was meat that had been salted and dried in the sun

Because of this, Vandalieu had been forced to build a food-se

Darcia had finally given Vandalieu per that he was doing hie to make katsuobushi+, was difficult

「In Origin, I learned things froeable about japanese food, but they weren’t experts inkatsuobushi+」(Vandalieu)

He dried the fish and charred it to make smoked fish This process simply produced a burnt product or left the center raw; all of his attempts had failed

To make ferredients and use【Fermentation】

It seele to redients for them in the form of Orc meat No, he still lacked the spices to make them

「First of all, put me do」(Vandalieu)

「Uu」(Pauvina)

Pauvina refused Vandalieu spent the fourth winter of his life being held in the air

The search was extremely difficult

A relatively safe route across the e had been planned out, but in the end, a third of the Subordinate Vampires had been wiped out

And the search for the Dha difficult as well

「I didn’t think that it would be this troublesome」(Eleanora)

The objective of Eleanora and her party was to ic Items like a【Dhampir Radar】or spells like【Detect Dhampir】

That hy they had decided to first find the village of Ghouls that he led The Ghoulsthe e, but there would still be at least two hundred left

A village of two hundred Ghouls would be quite large And Ghouls weren’t particularly adapted to living at high altitudes, nor were they good at navigating steep cliffs There was no doubt that they would choose flat ground, si reclamation now

Under those assumptions, they released fale Ghoul had been found

「Jeez, just where have they gone? It’s not as if they could have disappeared like mist」(Eleanora)

Eleanora sighed as she poured holy water that they had brought with them over the defeated Subordinate Vampire at her feet They were truly useless Their le one of the Subordinates gathered here so useless?

「They round I suppose we should search the caves as well」(Sercrent)

Sercrent had a look of exhaustion on his face as well He didn’t care about so But he was desperate because if he couldn’t complete this mission, his life would be forfeit

「But even then, the Ghouls would need to gather food, so it would be a cavern system with multiple entrances Or perhaps… the Ghouls already served their purpose in helping hie, so he disposed of them?」(Eleanora)

Leaving aside whether that was really possible, if it was true, that would explain why the search using the familiars that had even cost a third of the Subordinate Va That Dhaious fanatic Gordan when he was less than a year old

If he was on his own, he would obviously not need round would be simple

「More importantly, isn’t there a possibility that the spirits of these guys who have just died have gone to give the Dhampir information about us?」(Sercrent)

Eleanora and Sercrent were conducting their search with a policy of not killing or dying any more than needed in order to deal with the Dhampir as apparently a Spiritualist, but even so, the Devil’s Nests of the Boundary Mountain Range weren’t easy to deal with

Unlucky encounters with Dragons and such had cost them another third of the Subordinate Vampires They poured holy water on the dead bodies to prevent their spirits fro in this world, but they couldn’t actually see spirits

Only those with the Spiritualist Job can see spirits that haven’t become Undead

That hy they couldn’t tell whether the spirits were in the vicinity of their dead bodies The spirits could have rushed off towards the Dhampir and they would have never known
