The Villainess and I, her Zombie

"Of course I did! I am not like the weak part of me that actually settled on merging on equal terms – although I must say that some of the original instincts have remained – I had a hard time controlling myself when I was released and ended up wounding the white-haired avatar of wrath. I got angry even easier than during the first playthrough – which should tell you all that you need to know."

Eternal shrugged its shoulders and pointed back at the light-brown-haired girl crawling on the ground bawling her eyes out in despair.

"Speaking of which – what happened to her...?"

Cranberry shrugged off the news about Corvus getting wounded and motioned at the priestess having a mental breakdown further away beside the unconscious avatar of gluttony.

"I kind of told her that Zombie was the other reincarnation and she flipped out – weird woman."

Eternal shrugged its shoulders and explained in an indifferent tone.

"HA! Good – Zombie will love to see her like this before he kills her."

Cranberry laughed and clapped her hands together.

"Huh – he will kill her? Weren't they close in their original lives? I thought that was the reason why he was her failsafe...!"

The red and black smoke monster gasped in disbelief and turned towards the girl who got herself to the avatar of gluttony and was now crying while clinging to him rather intimately.

"Ha ha! Close – yeah – so close that he was dreaming about torturing and killing her since he learned about her presence in this world."

The red-haired girl laughed in the ugly bark-like manner and waved her hand dismissively.

"Oh – so, where is our man? I've learned that we are doing the secret route – which is very convenient for you I guess because without me you would have to actually fight with the real eternal and that would end up in a monstrous failure considering that this world isn't a turn-based RPG like the original game."

"Husband – Zombie is my husband."

Eternal asked sounding as if it was smiling – but instead of answering Cranberry corrected it with a serious expression and took out a black baseball bat with a magic crystal at the base and checked whether it withstood the flames of her phoenix form.

"Also, didn't you want to say that you are the lucky one? The body of the eternal will get destroyed so the secret true ending will be completed but part of your mind that is the rest of Patience will come back to me and we will fuse. The only thing you will miss on is this rather impractical form – and I can assure you that you will enjoy Zombie's hugs through me far better than you would while staying like this."

Cranberry added, satisfied with the state of her weapon and declared while resting it on her shoulder.

"Cute – that doesn't answer my question – where is the capture target in question?"

Eternal asked in a slightly worried voice as it also grabbed its left hand with its right hand as if it was trying to act on its own.

"...haa... you don't have full control, do you...?"

Cranberry furrowed her brows and asked in a grim voice.

"...cut me some slack – Eternal has MDF in billions..."

The red and black smoke monster complained turning its head to the side as if embarrassed.

"As for Zombie... I explained everything to him – like, everything-everything – and he got slightly upset – so I revealed to him how to get here and told him to catch up to me after he will be done sulking."

Cranberry shrugged her shoulders and finally revealed also looking to the side awkwardly.

"Wha...?! You do know that this place is in the middle of the OCEAN, right? How in the world will he get here without flying?! I will get him here with teleportation – wait, I will create myself a skill."

Eternal gasped and hurriedly put its hands together while its body began glowing with intense light.

"Ha? No – that won't be necessary – after all in the phoenix's layer Zombiereached the proper level to become the Undead Lord and..."

*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM*

Cranberry flinched and furrowed her brows, waving her hand dismissively, but her explanation was interrupted by something suddenly falling from the sky and crushing merely a few feet to their left – right in the very center of the marble arena – and ended up completely destroying it despite the fact that even the overpowered charge cannon skill of the avatar of sloth didn't do any damage to it...

|Special quest update

Face the Eternal [Completed]

/Special quest -the proudest of the proud- [Completed]

/Reward granted

"!!!!!!!!"

A system message popped up in cranberry's vision while Eternal suddenly straightened its back and its red and black smoke suddenly lost most of its luster tuning into murky reddish black.

"Hmph."

And then, from the rubble of the marble arena, a tall undead stepped out.

He was as blue as always but didn't have the jet-black armor anymore.

His long black hair was put into a low ponytail with a simple silver ring, he wore a long-sleeved white shirt which was cropped so that his perfectly sculped stomach was showing at all times, he also wore surprisingly puffy pants that were almost completely disappearing into the thigh-high black boots on a thirteen inch high heels – adding even more verticality to the already massive undead.

In short – Zombie was looking almost exactly as he did during the first playthrough – but now he was even taller.

"Cranberry – I don't want you to apologize for hiding basically THE MOST IMPORTANT DETAILS from me this whole time – but could you at least admit that our lives would be way easier if you were as open with me as I am with you?"

The blue undead scoffed, wiping the dirt off of his shoulder, glaring down at the red-haired girl who – even though she was considerably tall, barely reached to his chest now.

"Fine – sorry for not telling you that the truth is even the other part of Patience will still be on our side considering that we are going to finish the scenario just as her creator wanted to form the beginning."

"...!"

The red-haired girl rolled her eyes, shrugged her shoulders, and... actually apologized...!

Which was already shocking enough for the blue undead to flinch but not enough to make him take a step back.
