The Villainess and I, her Zombie Chapter 393

The blue undead frowned, looking around the arena.

Patience let out an exasperated gasp, sounding as if she was looing between her host and the middle of the arena where the brown-haired future heroine was approaching the growling future capture target turned into a monster wolf.

...I... might have a better solution...

Zombie's eye's widened when he laid them on something that gave him another idea, and he shook his head at the sealed overseer's words.

At first, Patience was straight up angry at Zombie for not complying, but then she went ahead and peeked into his mind and change her own mind instead.

With a confirmation that his idea actually was better, Zombie grabbed Cranberry's shoulder and leaned down.

"I am going away for a little bit, I'll be right back, please wait for me and don't worry."

"Ha?! Eh!? Ah! W-wait, where do you have to...?!"

He whispered in her ear before hurrying back to the entrance all kids entered the arena though, not looking back even while hearing the confused voice of the red-haired girl.

Instead, he sneaked past the big door, walked through the empty waiting room, and went out of it to delve into the corridors leading to the monster pens.

Zombie thought to himself, walking past the remaining monsters and the empty pens of the ones who were already killed off.

"Huh? What the? How did you get out...?!"

A member of the system faith had suddenly shown up out of nowhere and gasped looking at the little blue undead.

"Wait... was there even a small undead like that amongst the most...!"

*WHAM*

"URGH...!"

*thump*

Since it looked like the man was about to use a skill on him, Zombie went ahead and used the gale kick to jump up and then delivered a devastating kick on the unexpected guest's temple, knocking his lights out instantly.

Patience scoffed at him, sounding as if she was shaking her head.

But he didn't, now to...

The blue undead was about to continue his journey but got stopped y Patience's furious, yet justified remark.

Since if someone else found an unconscious man in between the area where monsters were kept it really would definitely cause panic and investigation, Zombie sighed and looked around.

This one is empty, right? If we put him there it will look as if he was slacking off and hiding to take a nap.

The blue boy motioned at a seemingly empty pen with his chin and without even waiting for Patience to answer, he went ahead and dragged his victim right there, Pushing him through rather generous spaces between the bars of a caged-off area.

The sealed overseer called the blue undead out and urged him to move faster

With that, Zombie reached the spot that he had noticed back in the arena – a small entrance blocked off by metal bars, that was conveniently out of sight for most of the audience and lining up with Mary's back almost perfectly – almost – from where he was standing at the moment, Zombie could still somehow see Arion readying himself for an attack as Mary kept thinking that she it was safe.

Alright, let's see if this will really work!

Zombie's face twisted with an anxious smirk and his eyes shone with pale-blue light – he unleashed the heartthrob skill, focusing solely on the wolf monster in front of Mary.

Arion's tail – which was the only part of him that Zombie could see in full, shoot up from between his legs and started wagging rapidly – and the shocked reaction of the audience above the ceiling beneath which Zombie was lurking made it clear that they all thought that it was done by the future heroine.

"I knew that it would work! Please, mister monster! Become my tamed beast!"

Marry was so excited about the sudden change of behavior of the creature that she was facing, that she exclaimed loud enough for even Zombie to hear – and extended her hand to the slightly confused Arion.

Patience breathed out with relief as Zombie went straight back the way he came from to rejoin Cranberry.

Shouting at Arion from the kids seats would work but it would pull way too much attention our way, an...

Zombie thought with a smile, but then he suddenly stopped and turned around, staring at the caged pen where he left the unlucky man, he even activated his life signature detection skill too.

He tilted his head in confusion.

Patience asked in concern over his odd behavior.

It's just that... I thought that I sensed something moving in there...

The blue undead furrowed his brows and answered slowly.

But the only life signature there is that system faith guy.

He added squinting his eyes as if he expected to see through some sort of illusion, but in the end, he couldn't notice anything wrong.

Patience sounded as if she rolled her eyes and waved her hands at her undead host.

True.

Zombie nodded and rushed through the corridors, getting the full use of the agility that he meticulously trained whenever he had the opportunity...

...that's why he missed the perfectly camouflaged marble-like monster slither in closer and closer to the defenseless unconscious man...

"Where have you been?!"

As soon as the blue undead arrived at her side, Cranberry grabbed his arm and pulled him closer as if she was intending to not let him go until he answers her.

"Undead business – oh! - Miss Hope really did tame her monster?!"

Zombie shrugged dismissively and instantly changed the subject, gasping at the sight of mary standing at the other side of the arena, waiting for Arion to be healed up after it was confirmed that the taming process was a success.

"Yes, she did – all the grown-ups were shocked that she had a class even though she was only level 1."

The red-haired took the bait and started explaining the things that her blue undead had missed.

"It was really something – it looked like the wolf will attack her, but then it suddenly got all meek and started wagging its tail like a cute puppy! You like monsters, don't you? If you want, I can ask Mary to let you pet her wolf!"

Cranberry said proudly.

"I can ask her that myself, though..."

Zombie furrowed his brow, confused by her choice of words.

"But Mary is scared of you! If I ask her she might be okay with it!"

Cranberry responded with unwavering confidence that made Zombie tilt his head and smile at her.

"Khahaha! In that's the case, sure, I'll owe you one if it works."
