Chapter 564: The correct way to use Shalltear

The Overlord World is a world where multiple races coexist.

In the forests outside human settlements, many goblins, ogres, and other monsters live.

Usually, these monsters do not invade human territory on a large scale.

But sometimes, for the sake of survival, these monsters will attack villages around the forest.

The quest Following Ye Yu and Erza's group accepted right now is precisely to eliminate low-tier monsters wandering at the edge of the forest.

"Isn't this quest too simple?"

After Erza casually slashed an ogre, she put away the long sword in her hand, looked at the large number of goblin and ogre corpses on the ground, and said with a sense of unfulfillment.

Hearing Erza's complaint, Hearing Wendi smiled apologetically and comforted her: "Hehe, there's nothing that can be done about it; the person at the Adventurer's Guild earlier also said that Copper-ranked adventurers can only do these low-danger quests!"

"Sigh, how boring; the commission for all these monsters combined probably isn't enough to buy a sword!"

Regarding Erza's words, Hearing Wendi just kept smiling bitterly and didn't refute.

After all, what Erza said was the truth.

The commission for this quest is calculated based on the number of monsters.

1 copper coin for every low-tier monster killed.

The low-tier monsters killed by Erza and Kagura right now are only about 30 or so.

So the commission for this quest only adds up to 30-something copper coins.

You have to know that sleeping one night in a multi-person room at an ordinary inn in the Royal Capital also costs 10-something copper coins.

A higher-end inn costs even 1 gold coin (1 gold coin = 20 silver coins = 400 copper coins).

30-something copper coins is too little.

"Could it be that I also have to be like Ainz, crying poor every day?"

Hearing Hearing Wendi and Erza's words, Following Ye Yu couldn't help but mutter to himself.

"Let's look around some more to see if there are other monsters!"

Kagura put away the Grudge Blade in her hand and prepared to go deeper into the forest.

But just as Kagura turned around, she was stopped by Following Ye Yu.

"Kagura, no need to look anymore!"

Hearing Following Ye Yu's words, Kagura's footsteps paused, and she looked at Following Ye Yu with confusion.

"Could it be that you want to use magic to gather the monsters in the forest?"

Erza looked at Following Ye Yu and asked with a strange expression.

Gathering "monsters" is not the first time Following Ye Yu has done this.

Back in Fairy Tail, in the future world where Lucy was.

To wipe out tens of thousands of dragons in one go, Following Ye Yu used Irene's 【World Reconstruction】 magic.

After 【World Reconstruction】, the dragons originally scattered across the continent were all gathered together.

In the end, Following Ye Yu summoned a large number of meteors and wiped out more than half of the dragons in an instant.

Hearing Following Ye Yu's words now, Erza couldn't help but think of this.

"No need for that much trouble!"

Following Ye Yu answered Erza, even summoning Shalltear from the different dimension.

"Great Master, may I ask what your orders are?"

After Shalltear, dressed in a scarlet gothic lolita outfit, came out from the different dimension, she lightly pinched the hem of her skirt with both hands and bowed respectfully to Following Ye Yu.

"Shalltear, what kind of subordinates do you have?"

Hearing Following Ye Yu's question, the three women—Erza, Kagura, and Hearing Wendi—who were originally confused, all had their hearts stir.

"Following Ye Yu, are you trying to use the monsters Shalltear summons to make up the numbers?"

Erza glanced at Shalltear and then asked Following Ye Yu.

Back when Following Ye Yu and Shalltear fought.

Erza and Kagura's group saw with their own eyes Shalltear summoning an overwhelming number of vampire bats.

Now that Following Ye Yu summoned Shalltear and asked about subordinates.

How could Erza and Kagura not know what Following Ye Yu was planning.

"The subordinates Shalltear summons are monsters to begin with, and the Adventurer's Guild didn't specify the type of monsters!"

Hearing Following Ye Yu's serious answer, Erza and Hearing Wendi were unable to refute for a moment.

"Hehe, anyway, they are all monsters, so this way we don't have to spend time looking for them!"

Hearing Wendi smiled, as if comforting herself.

Shalltear herself didn't understand what Erza and Hearing Wendi were saying.

She just looked at Erza and Hearing Wendi with confusion, then dropped her gaze back onto Following Ye Yu, her fair fingers resting on her cheek, revealing a cute-to-the-max thoughtful expression; after a few breaths, she answered: "As for subordinates, there are Spirit Warriors, Vampire Brides, Vampire Bats..."

"I'm not very good at Necromancy magic, I can only summon some low-level skeletons!"

Speaking of this, Shalltear clenched her hands in front of her, seemingly complaining about her own incompetence: "If I were better at Necromancy magic, I could summon Undead Warriors, Arins, for Master!"

Arins?

Hearing Shalltear's familiar catchphrase, Following Ye Yu's mouth twitched, and he immediately interrupted her: "No need for Undead Warriors, you only need to summon the lowest-tier Skeleton Warriors!"

"Only Skeleton Warriors are enough?"

Shalltear asked Following Ye Yu with some confusion.

She knows Following Ye Yu's strength.

In her view, low-level Skeleton Warriors couldn't help Following Ye Yu with anything at all.

But since it was Following Ye Yu's order, Shalltear had no choice but to obey.

"Fourth-Tier: Summon Undead!"

Shalltear raised her fair palm, and the next second, a huge scarlet magic circle appeared on the open ground in front.

Accompanied by the flash of a scarlet light, one Skeleton Warrior after another emerged from the magic circle.

Soon, hundreds and thousands of Skeleton Warriors appeared in the field of vision of Following Ye Yu, Erza, and the others.

These Skeleton Warriors were not carrying magic equipment.

Just as Shalltear said, they were only the lowest-tier skeletons.

However, looking at these low-tier skeletons before him, Following Ye Yu's face was filled with satisfaction.

"Master, what do you want these skeletons for?"

After the Skeleton Warriors had completely emerged from the magic circle, Shalltear turned to ask Following Ye Yu.

Following Ye Yu just smiled sheepishly and didn't answer.

After all, he couldn't tell Shalltear that he wanted to use these skeletons to exchange for money, right?

"Shalltear, you go back first; I'll find you next time if there's anything!"

"As you command!"

Subsequently, Following Ye Yu sent Shalltear back to the different dimension again.

After Shalltear left, Kagura and Erza looked at each other, then held their long swords and rushed toward the crowd of Skeleton Warriors.

Swish—

Swish—

Then, only a large amount of sword light was seen flashing in the air, and those Skeleton Warriors fell to the ground one after another like harvested straw. ===== CHAPTER 566 =====
