Reincarnated as Itsuka Shido: Collecting Spirits as Lovers-Chapter 167: Farewell

The soldiers and adventurer's rush towards the center of the cemetery, however, along the way, they were dumbfounded when they saw massive number of scattered bones and weapons on the ground. They estimated the number of the undead and come up with a total of more than a thousand.

Hearing the number, the rest of the adventurer who were bronze to golf rank were dumbfounded. They couldn't believe that a bronze rank adventurer can do this kind of thing by himself, but they could only believe that Shido was the one who cause this carnage as he was the only one who entered the cemetery.

As they neared the temple, they noticed that there were holes everywhere that caused by huge attacks and explosions. When they finally came to the temple, all of them drop jaws when they saw two massive skeletons collapsed in the ground, broken along with the destruction everywhere.

Seeing this, the adventurer's didn't know what to say anymore. A Mithril rank magic caster came forward and analyzed the remains of the Skeletal Dragon and he couldn't help but gasp when he discovered what kind of undead is this.

He told his discovery to the rest of the soldiers and adventurers and they awe only grew bigger when they heard about the strength Skeletal Dragon. The Skeletal Dragon had a strong defense and immune to magic spell, he describe it to be the bane of all magic caster. The adventurer's who were listening couldn't help but took a deep breath when they heard that. They began to think how Shido was able to defeat that monster.

The soldiers and adventurer's look around but they couldn't find Shido, just as they were about to search out, they suddenly saw someone walking out of the temple with a person on his back covered with robe.

It was of course Shido.

He came out of the temple after healing Nfirea's injury. Seeing him unscathed and even rescued Nfirea Bareare, the adventurer and soldiers rushed towards Shido happily, Peter and the rest were the first one who moved and hugged Shido in excitement. Ninya felt like crying when he saw Shido coming out of the temple with Nfirea, while Peter, Lukrut and Dyne had smiles on their face as they were glad that Shido wasn't hurt.

The adventurers and soldiers who came surrounded them and throw various questions at Shido which he felt helpless about. Shido told them to search around since the preparator of this thing wanted to destroy E-Rantel. Hearing this, their face changed and couldn't help but curse the person who wanted to destroy their City.

They saw the corpses of the magic casters that was slain by Shido. The one leading them told them his speculation when he saw the corpse. He told them that Zurrernon might be involved in this incident and their plan may even involve something bigger.

The rest of the adventurer's couldn't help but curse when they heard that. They then search around to look for more clues but the area was devastated because of the battle.

Shido was together with the Sword of Shadows, resting, Ninya was checking Nfirea's condition, analyzing if there was something wrong with his body. Fortunately, it seems that she didn't need to worry since she could only see that Nfirea's body was healthy.

20 meters away from them, Ainz and Nabe who also came looked in their direction.

"He's dangerous." Nabe said as she gritted her teeth and glared hatefully at Shido who was talking happily with Peter, Lukrut and the others.

"Yeah." Ainz nodded in agreement "I'm not confident that I would be able to defeat him by just using my physical ability."

"Ain- Momon-san!" Nabe was so shocked when she heard this since she didn't expect that her master, one of the supreme beings told her that he couldn't win against Shido.

Seeing Nabe almost spilling out his real name, Ainz became speechless. But he shook his head and continued "That's if I only used my physical ability. You know that my specialty is about magic spell, right? If I fight as a magic caster then I am confident that I could defeat him in seconds." Ainz said confidently.

Nabe on the other hand was looking at Ainz with bright eyes "As expected of Momon-san." After saying that, she turned her attention to Shido who happened to also look in their direction. Shido waved his hand towards her, but Nabe glared at Shido then she hmph and look away.

She didn't know why, but she felt that her emotion were always rising when she was together with him. Especially when he steal her panties, Nabe still haven't gotten it back making her at loss. However, she shove this mysterious feeling she was experiencing deep inside her heart as Ainz noticed her strange behavior.

"What's wrong Nabe?"

"Nothing, Ainz-sama."

...

Three days later, Shido bid farewell to Peter, Ninya and the rest of the Sword of Darkness. Nfirea was also with them, sending him out. After he woke up he couldn't remember almost everything that happened, all he could recall was that he was kidnapped and taken to a dark eerie place. If Nfirea remembered the cruel torture he experienced then he wouldn't be able to walk out of his house for a while. Fortunately, Shido erased most of his memory of his suffering.

After that, he gave the reward for his personal quest to Shido, Ainz and the rest. He also gave another reward for Shido since he saved him but Shido repeatedly declined it. However, Nfirea insisted making Shido helpless and in the end he could only accept it.

When the investigation and report was done on the cemetery, plus his achievement on the personal quest of Nfirea of killing orcs effortlessly, his rank were promoted. He was now a Platinum rank adventurer. Many were surprised by the sudden leapt on his ranking but considering his achievement, especially slaying thousand undead, defeating 2 massive Skeletal Dragons and foiling the plan of Zurrernorn, they didn't feel surprise anymore and could only accept reality.

Ainz, Nabe, Peter and the rest were also promoted but not as high as Shido. Ainz and Nabe were directly promoted to Silver rank while the Sword of Darkness stayed as a Silver rank adventurer but they were nearing Gold rank which made them happy.

Initially, he also wanted to see Ainz and Nabe one last time before he leave for the capital, but it seemed that they were on a quest grinding money. He wanted to return what he had stolen from Nabe but it seemed to be impossible now so he could only shook his head helplessly and know that there were various chance in the future.

"Take care Acheval-san!"

"We will miss you!"

"You can come back anytime."

Nfirea and the Sword of Darkness said their farewell to Shido. They feel sad but they couldn't stop Shido since they didn't want to hinder his growth considering that he was strong. He would definitely shine much brighter in the capital.

Shido look at them with a smile, he had to admit that he really enjoyed his adventure with them, but he still need to complete his quest so he needed to leave this city. As the rest were saying various of farewell, he noticed that Ninya was silent and was only looking at him. He saw that she wanted to say something but every time she open her mouth, she hesitated and decided to stop. frёewebηovel.cѳm

Shido had an idea what she wanted to say so he walked closer to her and matched her height. She was a bit startled when she noticed Shido's action and she had a slight blush on her face but the words that came out of Shido's mouth made her stunned before her face changed into a determined look.

"I will find your sister."

"..."

"So you must get stronger, much stronger than you currently are so you can come to the capital."

"Yes! Acheval-san!" Ninya became motivated when she heard this words and she would work harder to became a strong magic caster in the future.

Seeing that Ninya was back to normal, Shido decided to leave now. He walked out of the gate of the city while waving his hands at them.

His next target; the capital.
