Hundreds Years After I Was Called Just Corpse, I’ve Become Strongest Undead When I Woke Up

Chapter 43: They Were Sisters

===A Certain Female Holy Knight===

K-Knight commander herself.

That's only natural, right? The other party is the infamous No Life King who can't be defeated even by the Hero King. It's only natural for the Holy Knights to hate him. Therefore, the pope ordered my team and me to subjugate the No Life King.

Commander Celestia explained to me who was still bewildered.

I how stupid was I to forgot about this possibility?

But with this kind of speed, I didn't think the trump card of the knight commander would make it in time.

In addition, the chain of command would be shifted from me to the knight commander.

This event would foil my plan to have a conversation with that white-haired undead.

Then, is it true that you confronted the No Life King before?

Y-YES!

Can you teach me more about the event that transpired that time?

U-Understood.

No, even I didn't know much about him.

But perhaps I could convince the knight commander to approve my plan if I told her more about that white-haired undead.

First, not even this holy lance can purify him. Despite my team and I surrounding him and attacking him with maximum power of our lances, it failed to even scratch that undead. On the other hand, he was laughing at us as if our attack was nothing more than child's play for him.

And yet, he didn't even fight back, nor did he attack us.

I heard that he was a dangerous undead, but he just left without even retaliating. On the contrary, he even helped us by subjugating the internationally wanted necromancer who was our original target. He even protected Romana Kingdom's royal capital by defeating the Thunder Dragon Emperor.

What are you trying to tell me, Limule?

I pondered for a while before speaking hesitantly.

I don't think that the undead is an enemy of humans. In my opinion, unlike the other undead, we might be able to talk to him. If we can talk with him, I think there's no need for us to bet our lives to subjugate him.

Commander Celestia stood up from the sofa upon hearing my remark.

The truth is, I might've fought against that No Life King. Since he had red eyes and white hair, he might be the real one.

Comman der?

I took a short break in a city called Attila on the way to this city. There, I met a young man who was enjoying the hot spring I quickly realized that he was an undead and moved to subjugate him immediately.

Enjoying the hot spring?

Could it be, the commander too had already Although I knew that she loved hot springs a lot since long ago, to think that she loved the hot spring so much to the point of taking her time to enjoy it in this kind of situation No, I should pretend that she never said those remarks.

And yet, not even my Divine Sword could leave a scratch on him. Thus, the No Life King managed to escape. The strange thing I felt about him was the fact that he didn't even retaliate against my attack, nor did he release his killing intent toward me.

No way, Commander Celestia had already met him too.

Then, things would be simpler that way.

I heaved a sigh, renewing my determination to convince Commander Celestia again.

Commander, you should've already realized from your experience, that undead isn't a dangerous existence

Limule

!!!

She only called my name and yet, a smile unintentionally formed on my face.

And yet, I let my guard down at that very moment.

What do you mean by saying that he isn't a dangerous existence?

That's

He is an undead, a blasphemy who goes against the teachings of God. Do you think there's another way but to subjugate him? Or else, could it be that you, Limule, have fallen in love with that undead?

E-EEH, no, such thing is impossible!

I was really surprised upon hearing her remark, denying it quickly with a flustered voice.

At the same time, I reflected on my own naivety.

The commander's faith was stronger, far deeper even amongst the priests in our religion.

There was no way she would forgive an undead's existence.

Even if he is a friendly undead, it has nothing to do with our duty to purify him as the army of God.

Y YES!

Good. Naturally, I can't deny the fact that purifying him won't be that easy due to my failure from before. But that failure was because I tried to purify him on my own. Fortunately, there are many believers in Tana Kingdom's royal capital. Purifying that undead will be a piece of cake as long as we mobilize their power.

Commander Celestia's eyes were resolute as she spoke those words.

She had not even an inch of doubt in the power of her "Divine Sword."

Commander's Divine Sword was the strongest legendary weapon in the possession of our religious organization.

Its greatest power was its ability to convert faith into power.

Her faith aside, it should be able to display enormous power by gathering the faith from others' beliefs.

Surely, Commander's Divine Sword might be able to purify that white-haired undead.

But it was not like that power came without risk.

If this method failed there was a high possibility that the undead would bear his fangs against humanity who tried to kill him.

Considering such a situation should that weapon really be used?

Oh no, this anxiety was definitely a sign that my faith was lacking.

I should put my faith in God, the Divine Sword, and Commander Celestia.

Though I felt bad for breaking my promise with the Hero King, as a holy knight of Saint Melt Religion, it was my duty to purify the filth called undead.

Thus, I tried to persuade myself.

But for some reason

There was this gloomy feeling in my che

and that's all for now, Limule. There's no need to keep that formal attitude from now on.

After saying that, Commander smiled gently to me, a smile that she only showed to someone intimate with her.

Neesan is really happy to be able to see her beloved sister's face after such a long time.

Commander no, Neesan

Yes.

Commander Celestia was my blood-related older sister.

She, who had already shown her excellence since childhood, added with her strong and unshakeable faith, became a holy knight when she was just 10 years old.

My father, the current pope, seemed to let big sister join the church to prepare for her to become the next pope, or so the rumor said.

But that rumor was nothing more than a rumor.

The reason was that big sister proved to everyone that her power was a real thing.

She climbed the ranks, becoming a captain of her own unit at the age of 15, and finally climbed up and became the commander of the chivalric order of the holy knights at the age of 20, cementing her as the youngest commander in history.

And I always yearned for such a big sister.

Naturally, I knew that I would never become her since I was less talented compared to her, but

Lumile, actually, I'm the one who opposed you becoming the captain for Jean's subjugation squad.

Nee san?

I mean, I can't bear to part with my adorable little sister who I just reunited with.

Neesan, you're always overprotective when it comes to me. But I'm already 18 years old, you know. I'm already a proper adult.

When we set aside the matter of job and returned to being siblings like this, Neesan immediately turned into a doting big sister.

Surely, I couldn't brag about my achievement when compared to Neesan, but I could say with confidence that I did a good job as a captain.

Haah even though you still wore diapers till just a while ago

W-What are you talking about?!
