Chapter 11: Town of Undead
-No One's P.O.V-
After getting through the swamp, You, Ricca, and Iris arrived at an ominous ruined town in front of you three.
Ricca: (It's been about two weeks...since I was raped by goblins...and found Miria turned into a demon...or should I say a Succubus...It usually comes around this time...Could it be...Do I have a goblin baby in me...? No...sometimes my curse will get hot, but otherwise, I'm fine...Miria told me...that the semen...The baby seeds...were all eaten up by that slime...And I've transformed over and over, so I should be clean...)
Ricca thought to herself in a gloomy attitude until Iris spoke up.
Iris: I can feel a Drain Crystal ahead of us...
Ricca: Huh...? Umm...if I'm remembering right...That's the direction of that town Miria and I visited a long time ago...Are you saying there's a Drain Crystal in that town...?
Iris: Definitely, plus I can sense monsters as well.
(Y/N): Alright then, let's head in and stay sharp.
Ricca: Yeah.
And just like that, You, Ricca, and Iris ventured forth into the town to search for the Drain Crystal to destroy.
-Mini Time Skip-
It didn't take long to find the Drain Crystal and destroyed it, the town around you three was destroyed and was infested with monsters and undead.
So right now, the three of you were resting on a destroyed building to take a bit of shelter from the rain until Ricca began to speak up.
Ricca: I can't believe this town is...No...It's probably not just this town...There must be monsters everywhere else, too...
(Y/N): No kidding. I wonder what the heck happened to the villagers of this town?
Ricca: They probably must've evacuated somewhere...or got into a worse situation...
Ricca lets out a sigh before speaking up.
Ricca: I lived in my village without a care in the world...I didn't know what was going on outside of my small home...
(Y/N): People can relate sometime...
...
After resting for a couple of minutes, the three of you continued to move on until Iris spoke up.
Iris: I sense a human...
(Y/N): Wait, what? For real?
Iris: Yes.
Ricca: Can you see them? Which direction?
Iris then points in the direction of where it is as you and Ricca looked to where the human was until the three of you see a woman getting attacked by monsters.
Iris: It's that human woman there...It looks like she's being assaulted by monsters.
Ricca: What?! You should've said that so earlier! I have to save her!
(Y/N): (Didn't I just ask that before we came here?)
...
The three of you then got down the building and ran over to the woman's aid.
(Y/N): Hey missy, you okay?!
Iris: Wait! There's something wrong...I can feel an eerie power whirling around us...!
The three of you see a dark purple whirling hole on the ground near your feet.
(Y/N): Whoa, be careful now!
Ricca: Eeeek!
Ricca yelps until she starts to feel the curse pulsing slightly in her lower abdomen as Ricca begins to thought to herself.
Ricca: (Ugh...Nngh...The curse, it burns...This feeling...It's reacting to the magic of a monster...!)
The three of you then noticed that a monster start to slowly appear from the ground.
Iris: It's coming!
The monster itself fully takes its full appearance and it was none other than the Death Reaper.
Ricca: Eeek...A r-reaper...?!
(Y/N): Oh come on, who even invited this guy?!
Iris: It's an undead monster made from accumulated human grudges and evil magic...That scythe is bad news...You have to avoid getting hit by the blade at all costs!
(Y/N): I know that Scythe has written "Death" on it!
Both you and Ricca got into your fighting stances as the two of you start to attack the Reaper.
-Mini Time Skip-
The fight against the Reaper was tough, but you and Ricca managed to defeat him along with his undead minions.
Ricca: Phew...Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?
Woman: Ugh...I'm okay...Wh-Who are you two...?
(Y/N): We're just travelers passing through thank you very much.
Woman: Travelers...Thank you...You two saved me...
Iris: Anyways, what's a woman like you doing out here?
Woman: I'll tell you everything once we shelter ourselves from the rain.
The woman begins to explain everything from the beginning to the end.
...
Ricca: I see, so you lived in this town. But why are you still here? It's swarming with monsters.
Woman: I was separated from my younger sisters when we fled. It's been months since we got away, but I came back here to find clues to their whereabouts...
(Y/N): I hope you the best in finding them, but you really shouldn't be coming here on your own. Monsters lurkin' around here these days, y'know?
Woman: No, I came here with two men I met on the main road, but...Before I knew it, they had left with all the money and goods they scavenged from the town...Still...*Sniff* I thought that I could find my three sisters here, somehow keeping each other alive...
Ricca: Uh, um...If you like, we can follow you and help you find where your sisters went. The monsters have weakened since (Y/N) and I already destroyed the Drain Crystal.
Woman: Really? Thank you very...Ugh...Nngh...Aagh...
The village woman starts to feel pain somewhere else on her body.
Ricca: Huh?! What's wrong?! Are you hurt anywhere?
(Y/N): Something's not right...
You said quietly until Iris appeared beside Ricca and spoke up.
Iris: This is...
Woman: Aaagh...Haa...Hmmph...Aghaaaa!!
The village woman was now on the floor and is holding her stomach as she starts making loud grunting pain noises.
Ricca: Hang in there! Does your stomach hurt...?!
Iris: No! Stand back from that human!
Upon hearing Iris's words, you were about to do something until a sound of flesh exploded into pieces as you used your arms to shield yourself from the upcoming explosion.
Ricca: Huh...?
You slowly lowered your arms down as you looked down at the village woman until your expression turned into a horrified one.
(Y/N): O...Oh my god...
The three of you looked at the village woman, but she was lifeless because her stomach exploded into pieces.
Ricca: What...are these...They're overflowing and squirming out from her stomach...
Below you three was a bunch of small gray larvas that were covered from the woman's blood in her stomach.
Iris: They're raincaller larvae...She must have been attacked by one and implanted with its eggs...
(Y/N): That's...no...
Ricca: Raincallers...Aren't those monsters that hop around? I thought they looked kinda cute, but...these are...their babies...?
Raincaller Larva: Nyu, nyuuu!!!
Ricca's eyes widened in realization as she withdraws her sword out to try and kill the larvas, but she couldn't. Iris was a little irritated as she slew all the small larvas using her holy magic.
Ricca: Ack...Aaah...
That's when you start to feel nauseous as you quickly run away and start puking out rainbows.
(Y/N): (D-Dammit!! I know I've seen something like the Xenomorphs in the movies, but experiencing one up close is disgusting!!)
You thought to yourself while puking out rainbows.
-Mini Time Skip-
Time has passed a little. You and Ricca made a graveyard for the woman who had died by bursting out of small larvas inside her stomach.
(Y/N): Man...
Ricca: Iris...why?! We could have saved her...Why didn't you tell me that there was a person here sooner?! If only we had gotten to her quicker...We could have saved her!
Iris: I couldn't sense human life because the reaper's wavelength was overwhelming my sense. Don't take it out on me when it's your lack of strength that failed to save her.
Ricca: My lack of strength...?! What is that supposed to mean...?!
(Y/N): Ricca...She means that you're weak.
Ricca: What?!
Iris: Close answer, but that's not what I mean. The more monsters you defeat and the faster you destroy the Drain Crystals, the more casualties you can prevent, and the more lives you can save. It's as simple as that.
Ricca: Ngh...
Iris: Come on, let's go look for more Drain Crystals. There's no use being in this town any longer.
Iris says as she disappears into Ricca's body.
Ricca: ...
(Y/N): Ricca...
Ricca: *Sighs* Let's just go.
Ricca then starts walking up front as you walked beside her. You give Ricca a pitiful look on your face because you feel horrible for her that she's been through a lot.
...
(A/N: That's it for this chapter! Stay tuned for more!)
