Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!

441 Laura And Takeshi's Amazing Strength



—–

Rock, the director of this academy seemed flabbergasted over what had just happened in front of his eyes. Laura quickly jumped off the large carcass of the crab, walking towards us. Emeraldine quickly used the [Clean] Spell to clean her clothes which were covered in crab innards, as the explosion ended reaching her a bit at the end.

“Y-You win, I guess…” Rock sighed.

“Can we keep what she defeated?” I asked.

“Eh? The Mithril Crab? Uhh…” Rock began to feel a bit greedy, without wanting to let go of the beast my daughter defeated.

“Well, if Takeshi wins the next battle, we can keep the crab alongside whatever else he defeats later, how about it?” I wondered with a smile.

“Huh… And what do I earn if you lose?” Rock wondered, a sharp glint came from his eyes.

“I can sell you potions at a discount.” I said.

“Potions you say?! Deal!” The dwarf immediately said.

It seems that potions are indeed highly priced in this country.

“Then bring out the next monster!”

Rock seemed pumped up. He quickly called the other dwarves in the arena to open the gates once more, as Takeshi had already gone down to confront his challenge. He was mentally younger than Laura, and often more childish as a result, I was honestly worried.

“SHAAAAA…!”

Suddenly, the sound that snake monsters make resonated within the arena, as from within the open gates, a long, ten-meter-big snake with a head the size of a car emerged, with shiny red eyes and purple scales that shone with a metallic brilliance. The snake monster had long fangs that resembled spears coming out of its upper jaws.

“This is a Giant Venomous Metal-Scaled Snake! A deadly monster that often appears inside of caverns. They can swallow us whole and are considered the deadliest D+ Rank monsters. By their venom alone, some would even argue they’re C Rank!” Said Rock with a prideful smile.

Was he really hoping for a little child to get swallowed by this giant snake or something? Damn, when men are into gambling, it is all or nothing, huh.

“Uuhh… A-Alright then. I have to calm down…” Takeshi muttered to himself, as the enormous snake slowly began approaching him..

The monster seemed slightly wary of its surroundings but detected Takeshi as an easy meal it could swallow whole after biting it once. The snake quickly leaped over him the moment it realized he was too small for the beast to be so wary of him!

“SHAAA!”

The enormous jaws of the snake opened, as Takeshi took a branch from his pocket.

“A branch? Is that what’s he’s going to use to fight? Don’t be ridiculous!” Laughed Rock.

“[Fisher]!”

FLAAASH!

The stick he was holding quickly turned into a beautiful silver-colored fishing rod, it was the exact same as the ones from Earth, whose designs were completely alien to this world.

“SHAAA!”

The snake paid no attention to that little toy as the beast opened its jaws, quickly approaching Takeshi.

However…!

CLASH!

“S-SHA…?!”

The snake suddenly stopped right before it could swallow Takeshi.

The fishing rod he was holding had acted. Its silver-colored thread suddenly wrapping the head and neck of the snake in a mere second, stopping it completely from moving forward towards Takeshi.

“W-Wha? Is that a magic item?” Rock asked in surprise. “But he made a branch into it…? Huh?!”

Takeshi sighed a bit in relief.

“Hahh… I-I guess it worked nicely.” He sighed.

“S-SHAAA!”

CLAAASH!

The snake furiously freed itself from the fishing rod’s thread, as it quickly tried to attack Takeshi with its snake tail, stomping him down into the ground seemed like a good strategy, I suppose.

BAAAM!

The enormous tail couldn’t be stopped, as it hit the ground!

However, as the snake slowly raised its tail to see the boy’s body Takeshi was… nowhere to be seen?!

FLASH!

Suddenly, the ground behind the snake began to move strangely, as if it had turned into water itself, and from within, Takeshi emerged.

“Hahh… This is surely a convenient ability that [Fisher] unlocked after I evolved.” Sighed Takeshi.

Indeed, this was a new Ability! Just like my own Unique Skills could evolve as I evolved, Takeshi and Laura also improved. Laura gained more power and Takeshi obtained the power to share his fishing rod’s power to trespass physical matter as if it were water, giving him the incredible ability to swim anywhere he wanted as long as he held the fishing rod created out of any branch he could pick up.

“SHAAA!”

The snake furiously attacked Takeshi once more, however, he quickly disappeared once more, appearing right to the snake’s left side.

“I’m here!”

“SHAA!”

BAAAM!

Takeshi once more disappeared, appearing to the snake’s right side.

“Or here?”

“SHAAA!!!”

BAAAM!

And then, once more, Takeshi emerged from the ground as if it turned into water right behind the snake once more.

“You’re a bit slow…” He sighed.

Was he getting cocky after acting all shy and afraid? Wow, that’s a big change.

“S-SHAAA!”

The snake hissed furiously, as its tail continued slapping the ground everywhere Takeshi appeared for several times consecutively!

BAAM! BAAM! BAAM!

However, it couldn’t catch Takeshi, as he constantly appeared near the snake once more.

“S-Shaa… haahhh…”

The snake was gasping for air completely exhausted, looking at Takeshi with furious eyes.

“T-This power… he can turn anything into water he can swim through? Is this even water attribute magic?!” Asked Rock in shock.

“Hehe, it’s a family secret!” Laura giggled.

Rock couldn’t help but distort his face as he quickly smiled cynically.

“W-Well, it’s not as if he can do anything else than run away!” He angrily said.

“Oh yeah?” I asked with a smile, pointing at the arena with my index finger.

“SHAAA! SHAAAA!”

The snake was struggling, out of nowhere, it found itself caught in the fishing rod threads, which could apparently extend an enormous length as long as Takeshi infused more Mana into his Fishing Rod, he wasn’t simply playing around, he was slowly catching the snake into the fishing rod, until it completely caught the creature, rendering it immobile!
