Zongman: I'm working hard to develop my daily life in the time-travel series

If the divine spear transformed from the all-purpose farm tool is the strongest in single-target damage, then the explosive magic is definitely the most powerful in area-of-effect damage.

Unfortunately, even Megumin, a great mage, spent 50 skill points to learn this skill.

As an adventurer, I need at least 200 skill points to unlock the Explosion Magic.

Kazuma only managed to learn this skill in the final battle against the Demon King by constantly absorbing experience and exploiting bugs to farm skill points through the Lich King Wiz and another Demon King's subordinate.

Meanwhile, large numbers of undead skeletons, zombies, and ghosts began to gather in the wilderness.

These were all drawn here by Aqua, who was born with the talent to attract the undead.

As a goddess, whenever she appears in the wild, nearby undead will instinctively come to her seeking purification and liberation.

From this perspective, Shi Yu and Nazarick, where Ainz Ooal Gown resides, have an irreconcilable conflict.

Moreover, both of their worlds are based on games, so their top combat strength is probably quite similar.

I wonder if the level 100 monsters in the Ainz Ooal Gown world are compared to the Demon King in Aqua's world, or to the gods who manage the world or the demons in Hell.

If it's the former, Shi Yu can be 100% certain that Aqua, having regained her divine power, could easily defeat Ainz Ooal Gown.

If it's the latter, Shi Yu will likely face a tough battle.

At this moment, everyone clearly saw the group of undead.

Aqua let out a howl and darted right behind Shi Yu.

Shi Yu looked at Aqua as if she were mentally challenged.

"Aren't you the high priest? What are you afraid of, the undead?"

Aqua was taken aback.

That's right! I'm the High Priestess, and a goddess at that! I'm the nemesis of the undead!

Aqua suddenly put her hands on her hips and burst into loud laughter:

"Hahaha~ You weak undead, let your goddess Aqua help you find liberation! Watch me..."

Boom~!

Suddenly a loud bang,

The slowly approaching undead were all instantly reduced to ashes.

Darkness and Megumin stared in shock at Shi Yu, who was assuming a throwing stance.

Shi Yu pulled out his adventure card, grinning as he looked at the increasing skill points:

"What are you looking at? Physical exorcism, haven't you ever seen that before?"

Chapter Sixteen: The King of the Undead

Shi Yu's act of stealing the monster made Aqua angrily grab his neck and shake him wildly.

Shi Yu, on the other hand, happily took out his own adventurer card.

The level above has changed to level 3.

The attributes have also been slightly improved.

However, Shi Yu's brows furrowed very quickly.

His attribute values ​​only increased by 3 points, and his overall strength was not even one-third of what it used to be.

"What's going on? Wasn't it supposed to double the upgrade bonus?"

Shi Yu frowned as he looked at the adventure card and doubled it.

He originally thought that his attributes would double every time he leveled up, but now it seems he was overthinking it.

It's also possible that because of their high physical strength, the increase in attribute values ​​is not significant.

In any case, Shi Yu, like Kazuma, did not feel any significant changes in his body.

The skill points have increased to 6, which means that Shi Yu can now learn new skills.

However, adventurers do not have their own unique skills; they must be taught by other classes to learn them successfully.

Shi Yu glanced at Huihui, who was staring at him with shining eyes, then shook his head.

This guy needs 200 points to learn the Explosion Magic; it would take a normal person 10 years to accumulate enough points for the skill.

The Lich King Wiz, who possesses the experience-gathering skill, isn't in Axel City yet, otherwise Shi Yu would have grabbed her and taken her along to farm skill points.

Shi Yu pulled Aqua off his body and said:

"Alright, stop fooling around. Let's go back to Axel first, and then we'll prepare to go back to the Death Forest for the winter."

Aqua: "Waaaaah~ My experience points! You stole my jungle monsters!"

Shi Yu rolled his eyes upon hearing this:

"Undead give very little experience, and yours is a purification skill, so it won't leave much soul fragments at all. Giving it to you is a waste."

When I registered as an adventurer, the girl said...

Everything in this world contains a soul.

Adventurers level up by consuming or killing living beings, or by ceasing certain life activities, and can then absorb fragments of that soul's memory to increase their strength.

Aqua's purification is more like a ritual of deliverance.

The spirits that die at her hands do not receive any experience points, which is why, despite her frantic efforts to purify and exorcise spirits in the anime, her level remains almost the same as Kazuma and the others.

Therefore, it would be a complete waste for Aqua to fight undead monsters.

Kazuma and the others were too weak to deal with the undead monsters, so they had to hand them over to Aqua for purification.

Now that Shi Yu has the all-purpose farming tool, he naturally won't miss this great opportunity to gain experience.

“The undead…”

Shi Yu stroked his chin as he looked at the undead monsters that had been blown to smithereens.

Now that the frogs are hibernating underground, it seems like it would be good for them to take a few more laps around the cemetery thanks to Aqua's spirit-attracting abilities.

Thinking of this, Shi Yu turned around without hesitation and headed to the large cemetery near Axel City.

Every so often, a large number of undead will come to settle here, making it a sustainable monster-spawning spot.

The villagers of Axel often asked the Lich King Wiz, who was stationed in Axel, to perform exorcisms on them regularly.

Of course, everyone thought Wiz was just an ordinary great mage.

"Huh? Shi Yu, aren't we heading to the Forest of Death?"

Aqua was shocked to see the black spider and the devil spider turning back towards the cemetery.

Shi Yu spoke without turning his head:

"Let's go grind some experience points first."

After the group arrived at a gloomy cemetery,

Aqua's hair stood on end:

"There are undead! And they're damned undead monsters!"

Darkness immediately shouted excitedly, "Where? Where? Where is the powerful monster!"

Huihui, covering one of her eyes, shouted in a childish manner:

"Has the source of evil that I sealed away in my eyes been released? Don't panic, with me, the number one mage of the Crimson Demon Clan, all it takes is one burst spell..."

Shi Yu slapped Huihui on the back of the head with a loud crack.

"This is a cemetery. If we blow it up, we'll be wanted by the police, and..."

After Shi Yu finished speaking, he looked towards the center of the cemetery, where a dark figure was squatting and continuously casting necromancy to deliver the spirits in the cemetery to the afterlife.

The Undead King, the Lich Wiz!

One of the Demon King's Castle executives.

During her lifetime as an adventurer, she was known as a battle maniac and the Ice Witch.

He has fought against the Demon Duke Banir multiple times and has held his own against several Demon King's military officers.

In the world of "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!", he is definitely a top-tier fighter.

However, after becoming a lich, his personality changed drastically, becoming very gentle and submissive.

Otherwise, even if Aqua were a goddess, she wouldn't be able to suppress her so easily, since her main magic is ice magic, and she's even quite strong at Megumin's explosion magic.

Shi Yu's main purpose in coming to Axel City was precisely to find this naturally naive Lich King.

Shi Yu burst out laughing when he saw the somewhat panicked Wiz:

"I searched high and low without finding it, but then it came to me without any effort!"

Chapter Seventeen: The Unlucky Beautiful Lich Wiz

Darkness looked at Wiz with excitement and asked impatiently:

"Should we charge? Those who are in the cemetery at this time are probably all undead, right? Besides, we have Aqua, the high priest, so we won't have any problems."

Shi Yu looked at Darkness, who was unsatisfied and ready to rush up and be tortured, with a black line on his forehead.

This has absolutely nothing to do with Aqua. You were the one who wanted to go up there and get yourself killed!

"Calm down, now..."

"Ahhh!!"

Suddenly, Aqua excitedly ran towards Wiz.

She ran up to Wiz, hands on her hips, and shouted triumphantly:

"You audacious lich, daring to show your face in a place like this! How arrogant! I'll teach you a lesson!"

In this world, the lich is considered the highest rank of the undead race, alongside the mainstream undead monsters, vampires.

He is a great mage who has mastered magic to perfection, and through the profound mysteries of magic, he abandons his human body to become the King of the Undead, the King of No Life.

Unlike the monsters that Shi Yu had previously eliminated, which had naturally become immortals due to intense regret and resentment, these were different.

Liches defied the laws of nature through their own will, becoming beings hostile to the gods.

However, this being, who would probably be considered a major boss even in the world of Ainz Ooal Gown, was now crying and hugging Aqua's waist, shouting:

"Stop, stop! Stop right now! Who are you?! It's one thing to suddenly appear, but why are you destroying my magic circle? Stop! Please stop!"

But Aqua, who had been so timid and submissive, was now laughing triumphantly.

"Shut up, you undead! Anyway, you're definitely trying to do something shady with these suspicious magic circles. Whatever these magic circles are, I'll stomp on them! I'll stomp on them!"

Meanwhile, the undead minions beside the lich did not stop the two writhing together; they simply stared at them blankly.

Shi Yu rolled his eyes, stepped forward, and slapped Aqua on the back of the head, scolding her:

"You idiot, she's performing a ritual to help the dead find peace. And you call yourself a goddess? Are you stupid?!"

Aqua stopped, tears welling in her eyes, in pain.

"She's a lich!"

At this moment, Shi Yu finally got a close look at this strongest undead boss.

With her long, light brown hair and big, bright brown eyes, a tuft of hair on her head makes her look incredibly cute.

Combined with her fair skin and enormous breasts that seem ready to burst through her clothes, she evokes an impulse to hold her in your arms and protect her.

Seeing that someone was speaking up for him, Wiz quickly began to explain:

“That’s right, that’s right, what this sir said is right. The purpose of this magic circle is to allow those souls who have not yet become Buddhas and are still wandering in this world to return to heaven. Look, aren’t all these souls floating up to heaven from the magic circle?”

As Wiz said, many blue-white flames that looked like will-o'-the-wisps appeared out of nowhere and floated lightly into the magic circle, then were washed up into the sky by the blue light of the magic circle.

Aqua said unwillingly:

"You're clearly a lich. Let me, the high priest, do this good deed. Get out of the way! How long are you going to take at this slow pace? Watch me purify you and the entire public cemetery in one go!"
