Chapter 23: Airhead Girl
After 36 minutes, his mouth became free.
So, she asked him.
"Little worm, what is your name?"
Since 50% of the monster having 5 points in intelligence could talk, He decided to ask all question to this crazy girl.
"I am not a worm but snake."
Even though Zynx feared her, he didn't want her to make mistake on his race.
"Ahh! ok."
She nodded unconsciously and continued staring me.
Seeing her expression, he realized she didn't bother about my race.
"I am Zynx."
"Hello, I am Faustina."
Zynx nodded. He expected her to ask him another question after that, but she just maintained staring at him without speaking any other word.
Since she didn't speak, Zynx chose to ask her about the thing he was curious about.
"Faustina"
"Yes!"
Zynx asked with a low voice, " How did you know that dumping someone inside the fire can bring them back to life?"
She said while puffing her chest, "From my father."
'So, the one who is accountable for what happens to me is her father.'
'Her father must be crazy like his daughter, to teach her something like this.'
"How did you learn about this?"
"When I was 12, my mother died, my father placed her in the fire. He told me that, it was a way for her to reincarnate as a star in sky."
Now he understood, it was just a way to soothing a kid who had lost her mother. 'Poor girl.'
"Then I tried it on more than 18 people before you and it really worked, 5 times it was comparable to what happened to my mother, they changed to star while 1 time it was comparable to you and other times I failed."
Zynx didn't understand how she ascertained it as a success or not, but he was focused on another thing.
"Fuck!! Do you try it on every unconscious being you found?"
"No, father said that only when pure and innocent being died, it is possible, so I only choose the one who looks pure."
"Then, how did you determine I am pure."
"Because you are white."
Now he understood, why would she wanted to save someone like him and cared for him because he was supposed to be pure and innocent since he could come back to life.
Then he thought of something.
"Does your father know about this?"
"No, I didn't tell him because if he knew that I had failed more than 12 times, then he would feel bad. Only when I raised it to 100% success, I will tell him"
Zynx mouth twitched.
"Do you want to continue doing this?"
"Yes, because I don't want to see nice people like you to died."
'Rest in peace my friend who will go through the same suffering like me.'
From all this interaction with her, he understood one thing, this girl was not crazy like what he had thought before but a silly and to confirm he was correct, he asked, "Are you a wizard?"
She nodded her head.
"Then why are you wearing knight armor instead of wizard robe?"
"Because… it looks cool."
No need for further confirmation.
Zynx understood 'A wise enemy is better than a foolish friend.' So he wanted to get far from her but by looking at her face which was staring at him without blinking, he knew she would not let him go easily because he was the experiment of her, which was successfully revived instead of changing into a star.
While looking at her, he started to think of a way to get away from her. Then he suddenly thought of something.
"Faustina, Do you want to increase the probability of bringing someone back to life?"
"Of course."
"Have you ever heard of practices makes woman perfect?"
"No, what does it mean?"
"It means, if you can repeat the same thing again and again, then you can get perfection on it."
She nodded with understanding, but he knew, she had not understood anything.
"If you can dump more people in the fire, then maybe later, you can revive them in a single try."
When she understood that, she became excited.
Seeing her expression, he said while pointing south.
"If you move toward that direction, then you may find a huge number of dead body, you can try reviving them."
She became excited and run southward, but she suddenly stopped and asked Zynx.
"Why are you not following?"
'Why will I follow you?' He thought in mind, but he could not say that to her.
"I have just revived, so I don't think I can move around."
"Then I will carry you."
'Can't she understand? I don't want to move with her.'
"No need for that. I will just wait for you in here."
She thought for some time then nodded.
Zynx then kept all poison spear around him inside his void stomach then he vomited out bone and just left it as there was no shortage of bone in here.
[Ancient bloodline (white crystal) = level 3(95%)]
Zynx didn't know when she will return, but he didn't want to meet her again until she could restrain her crazy behavior, so he immediately departed at the opposite direction.
However, opposite direction was toward bone penetrating ants colonies but for him, it was better than staying with airhead girl.
Zynx then started to seek for single skeleton warrior like before while avoiding the group.
After hunting more than 3 skeleton warriors, he realized if he was to summon poison ward, then it was possible for him to fight with group of 3 or 4. So he actively searched for the group.
…
He had already defeated two groups, defeating total of 7 skeleton warriors when he found another group of the skeleton. There are 4 skeletons in this group but one of them was different from other. It had pure white bone while skeletons he had seen till now, all had gray bones.
Zynx thought, 'It must be variation type.'
He summoned poison ward and was ready to attack them when they enter inside the range. He didn't have to worry about them neglecting him as they could sense living beings in certain range.
But when they were 5 m away from poison ward, white skeleton stopped all other skeletons. Zynx didn't expect it to sense danger and even had the intelligence to stop other.
He didn't know the level of its intelligence but if they remained standing outside the range, then it would be hard for him to defeat, 4 of them alone.
'Looks like, the white skeleton is my first target.'
