Chapter 5 (v2)

After dealing with the hell that was the mana stream problems, I went to sleep.

“This stream… No… No more… Aaa…”

I am having a nightmare. It is a replay of the mana stream problem again.

“Guardian-sama, a group of humans is approaching”

“Oh?! Visitors?”

“It is most likely royalty. Even so, their standing is far below yours.”

I change into my original human form and Runamiria’s face suddenly distorts. Whenever I enter this form her mood becomes complicated.

“It’s just a way to hide my true power”

“If you say so.”

“Well. I’ll wait while napping. Runamiria, please wake me up when they arrive”

“Yes master”

I have a pretty good idea why they came. They need to crown a new emperor.

Wait… Let me modify the bed a little. It is too troublesome for my current size.

 

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

 

“So this is the shrine of the Guardian Dragon of the Assurado continent”

The Assurado continent is unified under one nation: the Gozman empire. The first prince, Harold murmured once he saw the giant shrine in front of him.

“Yes, this is the shrine of one of the seven guardians: the God of Sloth. Once you finish your audience and come back safely, we can complete the coronation ceremony.”

The very first emperor of the Gozman empire started the tradition and continued for all 23 generations of emperors after him. The tradition is valued as an audience with a God is like having divine blessings.

“Then, your majesty, we will take our leave.”

“Wait. Let me borrow your sword.”

As Harold will be meeting a higher being, he wants to make a good impression. However, he lost his composure when one of the knights handed him a sword.

“Don’t worry, it’s only heavy at first.”

Harold blushes in embarrassment and with a trembling hand, catches the sword.

“Now Harold, I will give you a word of advice about the challenges that lie ahead.” It was from his father, the current emperor.

“Inside, you have to defeat your own enemy.”

“Enemy? Is it a mighty beast?”

Harold’s face went pale. He thought he was only supposed to meet the God dragon, as a part of the coronation ceremony.

“No, there are no monsters in the area.”

Harold breathed a sigh of relief. His talent in swordplay and magic is only mediocre, far from what is required to become a hero.

“The entire ordeal wasn’t too difficult. I have confidence that you will succeed.”

The emperor laughed to reassure Harold. He also wanted to appear strong, as it will help him build political support in the future.

“So, who is my enemy then?”

“It is the most formidable enemy possible: yourself.”

“Myself? What do you mean?”

A doppleganger? A monster that can transform?

“Harold, do you know our country’s motto?” The emperor asked the confused Harold.

“Of course: Never give up.” [ED: lol.]

The Assurado continent consists mostly of harsh terrain covered with ice and snow. Thus, every single day is a struggle for survival where only the strong can live. For example, if you failed to collect firewood, you died. If you couldn’t hunt for food, you died. Diligence here is highly valued as a virtue, especially in the royal family since they have to lead the masses. Due to their diligence, the royal family has led the Gozman empire as the main powerhouse.

“Good. Don’t lose your way. You have to continue our legacy.”

“Yes father!” Harold nodded vigorously.

“Go, my son.”

After his father finished speaking, Harold stepped into the shrine without hesitating.

“He already went in.”

“Your majesty, please don’t worry. The prince is strong. I have watched him grow since childhood, I have full confidence he can succeed in the trial.” These words came from a knight that had trained Harold since he was little.

“Alright, make preparations for a camp. We will await his return.” The emperor sighs, staring at the shrine.

“Guardian Dragon God of Sloth, I leave him in your care.” He wishes for his son’s safety. “And Harold, come back safely and don’t disappoint me.”

 

-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~

 

“So Runamiria, I am thinking about remodeling the bed. It’s so hard to get on and down from it. I’ll lower it.”

“No! The strong must look down on the weak from high. Besides, Guardian-sama looks great sitting there. Looking downwards at 37 degrees, lowly creatures will even faint from seeing your majesty. The angle of your first pair of wings is at 84 degrees, the second at 55 degrees, and the third at 31 degrees. Your feet should be…”

“What? Am I a magazine model?”

“Eeh? Magazine?”

“Don’t worry about it. The point is, it’s difficult for me to get up onto the bed.”

“Master, please don’t change it.”

Time passed peacefully while the prince continued to venture deeper.

Zombie master 14

Chapter 14 – Mother

When Takumi returns to the tea house, Anba and Yu was welcoming Takumi with a relieved look. It’s a feeling of having a reliable family member.

“I don’t think other zombie will come. I also have released the club president.”

Actually on the way he already instructed all the zombie in the area.

“Don’t come to the tea house no matter what.”

After that Takumi said to Anba. “It’s about Azuri, I think we need to accept the fact that she has become a zombie.”

Anba wanted to cry out loud but she is affraid that it will attract more zombie. Then Takumi softly talk to her ear.

“I know a little bit about zombie. This is the first time I saw zombie that could talk. I don’t know if she still have her consciousness. I really have no clue but there may be hope.”

Azuri was outside of the tea house and taking role as a lookout. However there’s not really important since Takumi already ordered the zombie.

“It is also important that she was not attacked by the club president and not attacking you.”

Takumi couldn’t make any conclusion because the lack of information.

Azuri didn’t attacked them maybe because her memory of them is already planted deep since childhood. Because they could still maintain their memory when still alive, it is safe to make an assumption.

However there is an info about a man attacking his own family. In this case, Azuri didn’t attack them but helped them.

“Azuri is a zombie but she is not like the others. I want you to keep treating her as usual. She is our family.”

Anba and Yu nodded to his words. Yu is not a family but is a childhood friend of Azuri. She have a deep years of relationship of her and have no problem treating Azuri as her family.

“However there may be problems in the future. Her eyes is red like the others zombie. We don’t know how other will treat her.”

The biggest problem that Takumi think of right now is the possibilities of Azuri attacking others that is not friend or family. She may attacked them but he should try it out anyway.

“In other words, the existence of Azuri is a secret. Anba, besides me and Kisaragi-san, don’t talk about Azuri to anyone.”

Anba and Yu nodded.

“If some life threathening situation occurs, I will take care of it.”

Takumi was thinking on what will happened to the world in the future. Will zombie overcome mankind? Will humanity perished eventually?

For now there’s no need for Takumi to care about his normal life. It was alright just to be alive, keep on surviving in this circumstances. Altough there will be more problem living in these environment.

“Onii-san.. What will we do noe?”

“First, I want to check mother and father condition. I will take the bike so it will takes around 30 minutes. I’ll go right now.”

“What about us?”

“As long as you’re hiding here, under the flooring and didn’t make any sound you will be safe. Azuri is also here.”

The two of them was found out under the flooring because Azuri is letting out a groan while transformed into a zombie. As long she keep silent, they are safe. Also the surrounding zombie has been instructed to not nearing the place. It was a safe place to stay.

“Azuri older brother…” Yu voice was trembling.

Yu look at him as a reliable man. If he leaves, it’s like she will have a sense of crisis coming in.

“It’s Hiiro Takumi. You can call me any way you want.”

“Well.. Onii-sama.”

Takumi was surprised a little. Anba calls him “Onii-san”, Azuri calls him “Onii-chan”. This is the first time he was called “Onii-sama”.

“Onii-sama, please call me by my first name.”

“Is that so? Yu-chan then?”

“Yes!”

Yu was smiling a little but it was not a sincere smile.

“Onii-sama, will you come back for me?”

“Of course. I will come back as soon as possible. If I met some problem on the way I may come back in the evening. You keep hiding here okay. I’ll call out for you when I return.”

He also said not to get out if it wasn’t him who come. He also left half of his food for then. Takumi began pedalling his bicycle towards his home afterwards.

“This is terrible.”

Takumi arrived at the town that he had once lived. It wasn’t a luxurious residential area but this place is packed. It’s a dense population area. Zombies scattering around, abandoned car all over the place and unpleasant smell coming to the nose. It must be coming from the corpse but he does not bother to look for the smell source.

When he lived as university student till now, he haven’t got a chance to get back. The landscape of his hometown brings him to a nostalgia.

“I can’t be sentimental here.”

He continued his journey towards home. Naturally the light on the house is all turned off.

The houses door are broken. He even found a familiar face.

“Nishizuka-san..”

It was a housewife that lives in the neighborhood.

(TL note; too bad we don’t have MILF scene here)

He keep walking and he recognize their faces.

“Damn..”

He finally arrived at his house and took out a key to open the door. It is still locked. His parents may still alive. He was entering with expectation.

“…!”

In the living room, the window is broken. The sight of his mother favourite garden can be seen. At that same time a wind blowing in from outside bringing rotten smell. He dazed while walking forward.

It’s there…

His mother corpse.

The body has been missing half of it. Maggots were wriggling from the belly. Takumi ran out to the toilet and throw up. He keep on letting out a grieving tone.

He keep imagining his mother last breathe. He only hopes she doesn’t suffer too much.

At first he want to cover his mother using futon and cremated her but it could burn the house as well. At the least, he will burried her at the garden which she loves.

He erected a grave and lifted his prayer.

He cleaned the fragments of glass in the living room using vacuum cleaner. It attracts zombie but he askes them to go away. He cleaned blood stain and trying to restore the house to its original condition. After cleaning, he looked for his father. There is a massage on the answering machine but not from his father. He then left a note.

“I was with Azuri and Anba. I burried mother in the garden. If you saw this message, please go to this destination.”

He finished and pick up a flower from the vase. Put it in front of hia mother grave and clasped his hand together. He gives his prayer again before leaving.

He was sad.. He is too late too save his mother but relieved that she doesn’t becomes a zombie. Zombie invasion, maybe in the future the survivor will find a weapon to fight back. Dying instead of becoming a zombie maybe the only way to keep the dignity as human beings. Afterall there is no guarantee that a cure will ever developed.

Becoming a mindless zombie that roamed aimlessly. It was a sorry sight, he remembered about Azuri and he feel sad.

Even if she was a zombie, he is stil her brother. He need to protect her no matter what. But how? Takumi didn’t think about the future. He need to start thinking seriously. With such determination he returned to school.

He returned to the tea house and tell Anba everything. Anba was shocked, crying and clung to Takumi. She was prepared but it still hurt her heart. Seeing Anba, Takumi feel he was powerless and useless as a brother.

Then Takumi go with Yu to her home. If her family still alive, it would be great. It was only fivr minutes walk and he left Anba with Azuri in the tea house. This time, the zombie doesn’t attacked Yu which is with Takumi. But he didn’t realized that. Soon they arrived at Yu’s home.

Yu was frantic. She hurriedly entered the house and attacked by her mother. Thankfully Takumi was abke to stop her. However the shock of Yu is big. They returned back and Yu was hugged by Anba gently. There she cries till her tears dry out. Seeing Yu, Anba cried again and they cried so hard until they fall tired and asleep.

Takumi carried them down and lay them on the tatami. He decided to take a guard duty. He was sleepy but he want to keep these two safe. He decided to make a safe house, a base.

“For now I may try making the school as a safe zone.”

He was sitting on the outside of the tea house while thinking. He may make a clear floor of the school and let zombies roam around at the bottom as a guard to prevent new zombie coming. However how can he keep his ability hidden?

(TL note: it seemed the two girl haven’t known about his ability, only the fact that he is good at surviving)

He have no problem revealing it to Anba. But to Yu, she is still a stranger for him. He shouldn’t let others know about this. He can abandoned Yu but she was his sisters friend, what’s more she was a close friend of Azuri.

“What do you think I should do Azuri?”

Takumi sit next to Azuri and gaze to the distance. He was surprised when someone called him out. Of course it was not Azuri who look at him with blank stare. It was Yu who came out of the tearoom.

“You are not sleeping?” Yu was sitting in front of Takumi. Her eyes were shaking as if she was lost. She was also scared but seemed to want to do something.

(TL note: oh no! Could she be offering her body to him? She may get anxious that she was not his family and do it as a return for protection? Hahaha… Author-sama please give us a good scene)

Lazy Dragon Chapter 4 (v2)

Chapter 4 (v2)

With my three pairs of wings, I move at a speed that can be considered top class even among the seven guardians.

By using one pair of wings, I can fly at 100km/h, 200km/h if using two pairs. If I use all three, I can fly at the speed of sound.

For my divine body, the wall of air (created by traveling at the speed of sound) means nothing. I continue to fly while tearing through the clouds.

From the corners of my eyes I noticed that the power from the sonic boom was even able to mince a griffon flying nearby.

Thus, when I fly, I have to be careful as to not cause too much damage. Even so, I arrived in a matter of minutes.

The monsters in the nearby area run like frightened children when they see me. Even the Frost Dragon and Ice Golem, considered as mighty boss-level monsters by the humans, cannot help but run away at full speed. Pathetic.

However, it is expected. In front of me, a guardian, the correct answer is to escape.

So, this is the Snow Troll camp? I can see white hair yeti-like creatures looking up at me. They stare with hostility.

Don’t the Trolls worry that I might wipe them out if they offend me? Maybe they think they have a chance due to sheer numbers. They also seem to value their mana source very highly as they need the mana to evolve.

“Geez… What a troublesome thing.”

A group of Snow Trolls is coming to attack me. All they have is a higher than normal mana density. Killing them is not even worth the effort.

“For now, just cool you head.”

I flap my wings and blew away the entire flock of Snow Trolls. They flew into the lake and sank into the icy water. Maybe some of them will die swimming in such low temperatures but at least it reduced their numbers.

Okay then, no more pesky bugs. Time to get to work.

With my divine eyes, I can easily see through the snow and the ground. Tracing the mana leakage downwards, I found a torrent of such leakage caused by a jam. The mana stream is also jammed at multiple places, and completely clogged at the Snow Troll encampment. The Snow Trolls built a graveyard in the shape of a pyramid that, purely by luck, was located on top of the mana stream, causing a leakage of high purity mana.

Anyways, let’s finish the job. I use exploration magic to check if there are any other leakages in a 100km radius.

Hmm… There are several areas that concern me. Whatever. I’ll just change the terrain to create a new mana passage and clean the clogged one.

(Tl note: it seemed the author think of it as fixing a clogged toilet lol)

I pierce the ground with my mana and use magic to create a layer (ED: of mana?) that will stop future mana leakages from this place again.

By increasing the amount of mana I use, my mana is able to reach the mana stream and the clogged section.

Just like flushing a toilet, I made the mana stream start flowing and the clog disappeared.

Now that the mana stream has been fixed, I fill the crack (ED: created from MC’s mana?) so that the Snow Trolls can use it as a garbage dump again.

“Ah… Good work me… I feel as if I almost died from overworking”

I need a nap.

I fly quickly above the clouds, taking merely minutes before arriving back at my lair.

“I’m back…”

“Guardian-sama, welcome back. Have you settled it?” I am greeted by Runamiria gracefully bowing at a 45-degree angle.

“Yes. The bones discarded by a group of Snow Trolls were the cause. I’ve cleaned it, so it will no longer be a problem.”

“Thank you for your hard work”

After I reporting to Runamiria, I felt tired and wanted to take a nap – a 20-year long nap.

I go to my bed, made with the image of a RPG boss in mind. It is in actuality a throne, but it isn’t so high that I can’t lie down comfortably.

“Now, guardian-sama. Although you have just completed a task, another issue has appeared”

“What? So suddenly? I was going to take a nap.” I asked her lazily.

“Guardian-sama. Just now, a lot of mana has begun to leak throughout the Assurado continent. It will result in multiple cases of mana eruptions soon.”

“Eh? How come?”

“There is an abnormal acceleration of the mana streams. It is being pushed out of the continent and thus small cracks have appeared. It can’t hold out for much longer.”

“Let’s reconsider. I just finished solving a mana problem. There’s got to be some time to sleep right?”

“Guardian-sama, it seems we need you again.”

Hahaha… What is Runamiria saying? It’s naptime.

“By the way, abnormal occurrences of monsters have been sighted. Even plants are being mutated. We need to take care of it now.”

“NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!”

That day, on the Assurado continent, mana leakages occurred everywhere. There was even an extremely loud unknown roar heard all over the continent. The humans, out of fear, cowered in their homes and prayed to the God they believed in.

TL:

Okay.. If you didn’t read the original text you may not get the pun the author put inside.

Under the surface a stream of mana flow exist. It comes out to earth from a tunnel. If by chance it was clogged, it may explode later on because the mana that supposedly coming out is blocked.

Think of it as a hose. If it was blocked the water will have bigger pressure.

This time the tunnel of mana was blocked by snow troll. The tunnel was used as a garbage dumpster. And our sloth dragon used an easy way to deal with it.

He block the tunnel and clogged down the mana.

In fact the pressure was causing the other tunnel to take tremendous pressure and on the brink of eruption.

Because the tunnel was all connected to the same mana stream.

The first one is going to erupt because of clogged, the second problem is because too much pressure of mana. Think of it as a small hose is used on fire department hydrant. The pressure is bigger than the hose could handle.

To tell the truth..

The second problem is caused by our MC.. And it was worst because it happened all over the continent lol..

He think he has done a good job and wanted to sleep while in fact he creates more trouble for himself.. Poor MC.. Seems like you couldn’t sleep just yet.
