Dark Night Psychic

***---***

 

By the time I finished eating the fruit, the sun set and the night came to the forest again.

 

For a moment, the fear of being attacked by a goblin last night runs through my head, but tonight there are three encouraging escorts, so it's okay.

 

"By the way, don't you feel sleepy?"

 

[ We are undead monsters, so we don't need sleep or food. ]

 

"Well ... I wonder if everyone will be further strengthened if they take in the magic stones of the monsters they defeated after this."

 

[ Yes, it should probably be. ]

 

"Well, if that's the case, if you actively hunt monsters and let everyone take in magic stones, you can further increase your strength ..."

 

I don't know what kind of situation will be involved in the future and how I can return to the original world, so if I can increase my strength, it shouldn't hurt to do it.

 

As I was thinking about that, the sun went down and set.

 

Then, unlike yesterday evening, the moon hasn't risen yet, so I was able to enjoy the starry sky.

 

I wonder if there is a galaxy in this world, the Milky Way is flowing.

 

After enjoying the starry sky for a while, I noticed something unusual.

 

"What? Why is it so bright when the moon isn't rising?"

 

[ Kent-sama, how do you see the surrounding scenery? ]

 

"Um ... it feels like daytime on a cloudy day ..."

 

[ It seems that Kent-sama has become more accustomed ot using the magic of the darkness attribute, so he has become more used to night. ]

 

"Eh? Is that so? Maybe it's pitch black here?"

 

[ If you focus on the magic of strengthening your body, you will be able to see it, but for a normal human being, the tip of your extended hand is unseen in the darkness. ]

 

Oh, it's a wonderful darkness attribute, the moon was rising last night, and I could finally see the goblins, but now I can see the forest without the moonlight.

 

It's too high-performance to see in the darkness even though you can see the stars beautifully, isn't it?

 

Then, while hiding in the shadows, I saw the approaching goblins.

 

"It looks like company has arrived."

 

[ Hey, Kent-sama, you can see it even in this darkness. ]

 

"Yeah, it seems that the darkness of the night is an advantage for the darkness magician, I feel that the power comes from the depths of my body."

 

[ Fufufu, but Kent-sama, please don't take our job. ]

 

"Okay, but Reinhardt-san and Basten-san are to wait, because they'll shatter the goblin magic stones."

 

[ Guu, that kind of killing ... ]

 

[ We also use this power ... ]

 

"It's useless until you can adjust it properly, so Fred-san, please defeat them quickly and collect the magic stones."

 

[ I understand ... ]

 

The appearance of two vicious skeletons biting their teeth and regretting is quite surreal.

 

And in the meantime, while I thought that another carbon black skeleton had disappeared to melt into the darkness, the goblins' necks rolled around.

 

You would never know that the goblins were slashed.

 

It only took a few seconds for a total of eleven goblins to die.

 

I asked everyone to absorb three of the eleven magic stones we collected, leaving two.

 

There was no change in appearance, but it feels like they're getting bigger.

 

As I didn't move as it was, the smell of blood flowing from the corpses of the goblins attracted kobolds and goblins to gather together.

 

Reinhardt-san and Basten-san cried and begged, so I couldn't help it, so I asked them to do it this time.

 

Basten-san managed to recover the magic stone by exploding only the head, but the kobold who was hit by Reinhardt-san turned into a splash of hair, flesh, and blood along with the magic stone.

 

"Reinhardt-san, House!"

 

[ Agu ... ]

 

When he was forcibly recalled by the shadow summon, Reinhardt-san was depressed with drooped shoulders.

 

Let's adjust the power seriously, it's a blow to fight any monster.

 

After that, Fred-san & Basten-san's combination killed goblins and kobolds and continued to strengthen them steadily, but this is a vicious circle for Reinhardt-san.

 

Even though the power adjustment isn't working well, it's further strengthened, so it's not a waste.

 

At that time, they appeared.

 

The reddish-brown rugged giant is likely to be about 3 meters long, with thick chest plates, upper arms, thighs, and other muscular ridges.

 

The dark brown curly hair extends to the soulders, the chin looks sturdy and is unlikely to break even if hit with a bat, and the forehead has two horns.

 

A powerful monster that is incomparable to goblins is called the rock ogre.

 

Even so, they are unlucky ... I nodded to Reinhardt-san, thinking so.

 

The three rock ogres are probably the strongest monsters in this area, and without being wary of their surroundings, when they approached the mountain of goblins and kobolds and sat down, they began to devour them.

 

The creepy sound and the smell of bload floating around made me feel sick.

 

No matter what I do, I remember when I was eaten.

 

"Reinhardt-san, do it ..."

 

[ Leave it to me ... ]

 

Reindhardt-san walked towards the rock ogres with a dignified gait, without being hidden in the shadows.

 

"Uboaaaa ..."

 

The rock ogres who noticed Reinhardt-san raised a menacing voice.

 

Reinhardt-san turned around when he heard that voice and smiled with a grin, a really happy smile.

 

Oh, really kill already, isn't it enough?

 

A rock ogre greeted Reinhardt-san, standing up angrily at his shoulders.

 

"Uboaaa, Uvaaaa!"

 

"Uraaaaaaa!"

 

Reinhardt-san greeted the rock ogre that that is grabbing at him with his bare hands without pulling out his big sword.

 

How much of him is made of tungsten? But isn't it useless if the bones of about 1m80cm and the muscular ridges of the 3m class play a game?

 

Just use a weapon, it doesn't make sense to name it a weapon, gram.

 

As expected, Reinhardt-san, in a strength competition with a rock ogre, begins to be pushed in as if pressed from above.

 

Should I recall him by summoning through the shadow? Thinking such, looking back at Basten-san and Fred-san, they both shrugged their shoulders and showed that there was no problem.

 

Ah, both of them are skeletons, but I can understand their facial expressions and read their intentions.

 

Whether I should be happy or sad, I turned around with mixed feelings, and the situation began to change.

 

"Ubo ... Ubo, Ubo, Ubo ..."

 

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"

 

Reinhardt-san, who had been pressed down a while ago, is trying to hold down the rock ogre while folding his wrist.

 

Reinhardt-san does not seem to loosen his power even if the wrist is bent in a direction that it shouldn't bend, and the rock ogre moans, and it seems that he is trying to push it to the ground as it is.

 

Perhaps they noticed the their friend was inferior, the other two rock ogres stopped eating and stood up.

 

Upon seeing it, Reinhardt-san struck a knee kick into the face of the rock ogre, which is now lying down at his feet.

 

Uhhh, the rock ogre's head exploded like a balloon.

 

In addition, Reinhardt-san pulls out the great sword Gram and tosses a sideways blow at the rock ogre's leg.

 

The rock ogre reflexively tries to jump back, but took a flash of the great sword Gram and lost his knees.

 

Reinhardt-san leaves the one that can't move, steps into the other one, and with a flash strikes sideways at his head.

 

The rock ogre reflexively tries to guard with his arms, but a flash of the great sword Gram blew his head up along with his arms.

 

Hmm ... It's strange that the opponent who was cut explodes even tho it's a sword.

 

"Ugaaaaaaa!"

 

After screaming for victory, Reinhardt-san stabbed the rock ogre who had lost his legs and was stuck.

 

How is it, I did it. The pose as such is ridiculously hot.

 

"Fred-san, I'm sorry, can I ask you to collect the magic stones?"

 

[ I understand. ]

 

Fred-san melted into the darkness and instantly moved near Reinhardt-san.

 

Yeah, it looks like a ninja and looks good.

 

[ I'm sorry, Kent-sama, why has the leader been there for a long time ... ]

 

"Ah ... yeah, it's okay because I knew it a little, isn't it okay if I give him a chance to vent from time to time?"

 

[ That's right, I'm basically a caring person, oh, is it a skeleton now? ]

 

When he was alive, he seemed to have had a lot of trouble, and while looking at the distant-eyed Basten-san, I figured he would continue to have trouble.

 

I can't take care of such a hot old man.

 

After having each of the three rock ogre magic stones taken in and strengthening them, I decided to move to another place and take a rest.

 

Perhaps it's a characteristic of a dark magician, it makes me feel better at night, but considering that I'll be active during the day, it's better to sleep a little.

 

I didn't feel the need to sleep very much, but I decided to leave the escort to everyone and sleep.

 

I thought I didn't need to sleep, but it was because I was nervous, and as soon as I chose a soft grassland and lay down, I fell asleep instantly.

 

Chun, Chun, Chun ... ...

 

The next morning, I woke up again with the song of a bird.

 

I was looking forward to it last night, yeah, the skeleton knights enjoyed the slaughter to their heart's content.

 

While thinking such, I smell something good and fragrant.

 

[ Kent-sama ... breakfast is ready ... ]

 

"Good morning, Fred-san, oh! It's a fish!"

 

[ In the river beyond there ... I got it ... ]

 

"Thank you, wow, it looks delicious!"

 

The fish, which resembles trout, has no odor, has a light taste, and is very delicious.

 

They also brought fruits, but I was absorbed in the protein source after a long time and devoured the fish.

 

[ By the way, Kent-sama. ]

 

"What is it, Reinhardt-san?"

 

[ If you go to Volzard, your current clothes are no good. ]

 

"Well, that's right, I'm suspicious looking like this."

 

Speaking of my current appearance, I'm wearing a uniform that is more like a cloth than clothes because it's been cut off by goblins.

 

The contents are a real human being, but the blood is soaked in it, it's like a zombie cosplay costume.

 

If you go to the city like this, you will definitely be suspicious.

 

"Hmm ... but, is there a store on the way to the city? I don't have any money."

 

[ So, Kent-sama, why don't you walk a little near the highway? ]

 

"It doesn't matter, but why?"

 

[ If all goes well, you may have something to wear. ]

 

"Okay, I'll leave it to Reinhardt-san."

 

I Followed Reinhardt-san's suggestion and proceeded through the woods at a distance overlooking the road.

 

The reason why wedidn't go on the highway is that if we suddenly meet a carriage, it will be suspicious if I don't explain myself and everyone, and in some cases, we may be attacked suddenly.

 

Considering the future, it is wise to avoid unnecessary conflicts between humans.

 

Then, as I proceeded through the woods along the highway, there was a collapsed carriage.

 

As I approached, there were many traces of blood left around, and pieces of meat that gave off a rotten odor had fallen.

 

The three were wary of the surroundings, but there is no sign of a monster, probably because time has already passed since the attack.

 

"Reinhardt-san, this was attacked by a monster, right?"

 

[ Yes, it's normal to think so. ]

 

"Maybe, from this carriage?"

 

[ Yes, at any rate, the cargo of this carriage will just decay, we should take advantage of it. ]

 

The monsters seemed to be interested in the humans in the carriage, but not in the cargo, and much of the luggage was left behind safely.

 

Feeling a little guilty, I hunted for luggage and searched for clothes that I could wear.

 

I was less than 160cm, and I had only slightly large clothings, but I can't expect luxury.

 

The clothes were neatly folded and put in a bag. I borrowed them after putting my hands together.

 

Everyone searched for luggage and cargo, looking for something that could be used.

 

As a result, this world's clothing set, gold coins and silver coins, valuables such as magic stones, cloth and rugs that seem to be commodities, knives and pots, flour, salt, sugar, oil, ropes, needles and threads, etc. I was able to get it.

 

I don't like feeling like a thief, but if another carriage passes by, the same thing will happen, and in this world, it's a memorial service to take advantage of dead humans. That's it.

 

It's impossible for an ordinary person to carry such a large amount of luggage and move through the woods, but in my case, I could put it in the shadow space, so I took it all and stored it.

 

According to Reinhardt-san, doing business through the woods is dangerous, but it's also good to earn, and the amount of treasure collected is enough to play around for a couple of years.

 

With clothes and money, we decided to head for the fortified city of Volzard.
