The Villainess and I, her Zombie

Chapter 497: Durian's mansion (21) - VS Durian (2)

"Sike!"

"?!?!?!?!?!"

...but instead of actually going full power, the blue undead's body flashed with white light as he activated his acrobatics skill and used Durian's fist as a stepping stone to get himself into a perfect position to the massive man's head.

Zombie's throat and jaws shone with orange light as he opened them up glaring at Durian's face with wild joy.

"Are you kidding me...?!"

The sigiled man gasped as all blood drained from his face in an instant once he recognized the distinctive light of the gluttony-based skill.

In despair, Durian raised his crushed hand up and...

*CHOMP*

"AAAAAAAUUUUURRRGGGHHHHHH!"

...growled in pain when the invisible force cut his hand off and transported it into the blue undead's mouth as a condensed matter...

*crunch*

*gulp*

...that the blue undead had promptly chewed up and swallowed without even a second of hesitation before nimbly jumping away from the growling man.

Durian stumbled back, holding his handless arm, clenching his fist around the remains of his wrist from which crimson red blood was bursting forth as if it was an oddly colored mountain stream.

"Pffft...! Khahahahaha! Whoa...! Kind sir, I must say that you are rather delicious~ the Eternal's energy flavoring is really doing miracles with the usually drab meal!"

Zombie couldn't stop himself and giggled mischievously while prudently covering his mouth with one hand.

"...if you like that flavor so much - then why don't I feed it to you directly?!"

Durian's face twisted in anger and his wounded hand got completely enveloped by the red and black smoke forming something akin to a protective glove - and the furious man charged at the blue undead.

"Hmph...!"

Zombie smirked and his jaw and throat shone orange once more...

*CHO-*

*THUNK*

/Skill failed

*WHAM*

Although initially, it looked like the charging man will lose more of his body to the gluttony-based skill, once Zombie clapped his jaws together, he felt that something has blocked it and a sound similar to metal slamming against metal resounded, as the concentrated red and black smoke easily blocked the tier 1 skill - and as such, Durian's charge was successful and his first crushed...

...into the ground where the blue undead was just a moment earlier - as the emergency dodge skill shone once more, proving itself to be one of the most - if not the most - useful tier 1 skill.

"!!!!"

*WHAM*

*BOOOOOM*

As Durian was gritting his teeth glaring at the nimble undead, the blue undead went ahead and with the aid of the acrobatics skill twisted, turned around, and delivered a devastating kick right into the sigiled man's stomach, sending him flying and crashing into the whatever was left of his mansion - leveling it down with the force of the impact.

|It sure felt like I kicked out some of his intestines... but where are they...?|

Zombie furrowed his brows, looking at the debris where the splatter of blood had marked the place where Durian received the augmented kick.

|Durian doesn't have the overpowered healing ability because Luke isn't his slave anymore, but even so, I don't think that killing him would be as easy as you think - he is channeling the power of the Eternal after all.|

The sealed being sounded as if she was furrowing her brows in hesitation, deeply analyzing the situation.

"...you... piece of shit undead...!"

...and she was right to be skeptical about Durian's demise, as the man himself had raised up - now not only his hand but his entire stomach and left side of the chest were covered in a thick layer of the red and black smoke, that kept them together like some sort of threatening cast.

"..."

Zombie straightened his back and frowned at the man who was beginning to look less and less like a human and more like a human-shaped puppet.

|Oh-ho...!|

Just in case, the blue undead used his life signature detection skill on him and made an interesting discovery.

Durian's life essence was slowly fading away as if the man was dying with each second but in its place pulsating mana was sipping inside his body, taking it over.

|He wanted to use the power of the Eternal but is the one being used instead. Ironic.|

The sealed being smirked, sounding as if she shrugged her shoulders.

|I'm more concerned about the fact that the smoke is making him more or less immune to my attacks... that's a first, except for the barrier of course...|

Zombie scoffed internally, glaring at the swirling red and black smoke climbing up and taking over Durian's large body.

|It is the barrier, just that he is able to use it far better and more creatively than any actual sigil monster that we have encountered so far... haa... so annoying...|

The sealed being breathed out and complained.

|Hey, I'm the one actually fighting him, why are you complaining?|

The blue smirked and his jaws and throat started glowing orange again.

|You're trying that again?|

The sealed being sounded as if she furrowed her brows in confusion.

|The smoke barrier might be blocking the parts underneath it, but there are plenty of spots prime for eating~|

The blue undead wasn't discouraged and instead already picked the most obvious target - Durian's head.

"Why don't you give up and die?!"

*÷•£•|«|£÷|«*

The wounded man wasn't going to just let him be the first to attack though - with a wild roar and to the accompaniment of some inhuman sounds, the tentacles of red and black smoke burst forth from the mass covering his stomach, all aiming at the blue undead!

*WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM* *WHAM*

"Khahaha!"

Zombie made use of his skills and dodged all of the smoke tentacles letting them all pierce the ground around him and charged straight at Durian.

"Fool!"

The man shouted triumphantly and the separate tentacles turned into a loose gas that gathered around the blue undead...!

"Oh, shut up."

*BOOOOOOOOOOM*

Zombie rolled his eyes and kicked the ground, launching himself forward outspending the red and black smoke before it could condense and trap him...

"!!!!!!"

*BOOOM*

...but exactly because of that speed, the blue undead ended up overshooting the sigiled man, landing far behind his back, and had to kick the ground again to get within the gluttony-based skill reach.

"NOOOO-!"

*CHOMP*

Then, even though it seemed like there is a clear way for the skill to activate and behead Durian, the same maid that Zombie thought was lying unconscious - or dead - under the debris popped out of nowhere and threw herself in between the two - ending up with getting almost half of her torso bitten off by Zombie's skill - the left side, which included her heart - killing her on the spot.

/High-level player character defeated

You receive the EXP

*stab*

"...tsk...!"

"Ahahahahahaha! Finally! I got you!"

The message showed up in front of the blue undead face, partially blocking his vision - which was used by Durian who launched another one of the red and black smoke tentacles - piercing right through the body of the maid who sacrificed herself for him, and it managed to dig into Zombie's chest - making the blue undead click his tongue in annoyance as the red and black smoke entered his body...!
