“I respect you. From the bottom of my heart. You are gathering comrades and getting stronger and stronger every day. You dazzle me. I cannot get enough of you.”

The intelligent zombie raised the magic sword and pointed it’s tip at me.

“–That’s why I want to kill you.”

“I want to kill you and surpass you.”

“Once I can do that, I feel like I will become a stronger monster, reborn in this world anew.”

It is an insane, selfish belief that has no regard for others.

It is a monster’s way of thinking that is incompatible with humanity.

An arrogant way of life, a way of life where the world is all about you.

“–Don’t fuck with me!”

That’s a load of crap.

“For such a trivial thing, you destroyed this safe zone we built, and you even put Momo through that?”

“Knowing the opponent’s weaknesses is the basis of any strategy.”

“Shut up!”

“I won’t shut up. Just as you gather your friends and survive in this world, I want to survive in this world, I want to live the way I want to live, the way I like to live. To do this, I will think, I will plan, I will use everything I have. I want to make you suffer, I want to make you despair, I want to kill you. That’s how I want to live in this world, as a monster!”

At that moment, a huge amount of energy overflowed from the intelligent zombie’s body.

“ !? What ?”

“I’ll tell you, the precocious owner. The essence of the skills we possess.”

The essence of skill ?

“Did you think that the only skills we had were to gain experience and points? No, not at all. That’s not what our skills are all about.”

The intelligent zombie smiled widely and raised one of his hands to heaven.

“Order! Individuaclass="underline" High-ranking Ghoul. Grant access to Chaos Frontier System Server!”

What the hell are you trying to do?

“I’ve been thinking for a long time. I don’t have a name yet. What kind of name would be good if I could be given a name?”

“Unlike you humans, the name given to us monsters is an indication of our very existence, so I used the skills I was given when I was born in this world. I will be called – “Arroganz”.”

-Zaza, Zazazaza≫

My head throbbed severely.

I hear a static noise in my head.

Zaza-Zazazazazaza-Zazazazazazazama -Contacting Zazazaza≫

“Come on, answer me! Chaos Frontier!”

In response to his voice, the noise that echoed in my head intensified.

Zazaza– Connection– Connection– Failure≫ The target individual meets the conditions -Zaza-Satisfied-Zaza different Zaza-≫ No-No-No-No-No-Zaza-Connect-Connection-Success >> Application accepted≫ Certify the target individual as a named monster≫ Name the target as the individual name “Arroganz” ≫ Bonus will be given≫ Strengthen various stats≫ Acquired the unique skill “Blood Realm” ≫

An announcement that flows in my head.

What is this ?

No way, this guy Did he just proclaim himself a named monster and turned into one?

Impossible, how can he do that?

“It’s possible. This is the power of ‘Arrogance’! Infiltrating and tampering with the system! My own power, which no one else can infringe upon!”

The intelligent zombie’s energy increased as he spoke.

It’s like the time of the Dark Wolf, who evolved at school.

“Let’s introduce ourselves again, precocious owner. My name is Arroganz. I’ll kill you and I’ll be reborn in this world. I won’t let anyone get in the way.”

Thank you for reading.

There were two possible names for zombies: Midnight Rage and Arrogant Allogants.

My middle-aged mind made me choose the latter.

CH 227

“Arroganz, you say ?”

The intelligent zombie gradually closed the distance between them.

The sense of intimidation and strength is different from what he exhibited a moment ago.

But is it really possible to turn yourself into a named monster?

No, there is no doubt about it. It is possible. The existence in front of me confirms it.

“It’s German for ‘arrogance’. Apparently, in the Chaos Frontier, when naming a word after its symbolic existence, they like to use the German language. ‘She’ knew a lot about our world, too. Well, they probably chose this language because it sounded so cool. Although you are probably the only ‘exception’ to this.”

“-Huh!?”

The next moment, the intelligent zombie – Arroganz, disappeared. 

No, that’s not it. He simply moved. 

Focus. Look for his traces. 

“–Behind!”

“You did a good job at finding me.”

Sparks flew when my ninjato and Arroganz’s magic sword collided. 

( The Art of Thunder is still infused. Is it not working?)

The feeling is different.

Quite literally, this thing has evolved into a different level of existence from what it was before.

What’s the difference between having a name and not having a name?

No, in fact, the Dark Wolf that evolved in the school had also gained a new level of strength after being named.

Although, I didn’t know it had a name until recently.

“Alter Ego.”

Arroganz easily killed the dozens of alter egos I created in an instant.

What was that just now? 

The slashes from the sword he swung dispersed all around him?

The power and speed of the slashes are completely different from before.

“Your alter ego’s status and thoughts are the same as yours. But they can’t use your skills, and that’s their weak point. How can they possibly stop me?”

“Thank you very much for the damn explanation!”

“Just so you know. I’m not going to stop you, and I’m not going to let you use the hammer, okay? How could I fail to take such precautions?”

“ You sure have a good tongue!”

That is not a bluff.

I don’t think he was bluffing.

I was convinced by this attack.

If I try to use the hammer with my alter ego, he will definitely take advantage of it.

I’m sure he’s observing my skills very closely.

“Hahahahahaha! So, why don’t we skip the petty fights and fight for real?”

“It’s a domain skill. I just learned it!”

Arroganz stretched his arms out wide and red mist began to billow around him.

” – ‘Blood Realm’”

The realm skill is a type of skill that creates a field favorable to you.

He’s getting more powerful after naming himself “Arroganz”, and if he gets any more powerful, I won’t stand a chance.

I don’t like that I have to take him up on his offer, but I don’t have a choice.

“- ‘The Realm of the Falling Sun’”

His smile deepened as the shadows under my feet spread out abnormally.

“Now, here comes the fun part!

The two domain skills were activated simultaneously.

In the next moment, the red and black that had erupted around us engulfed the space as they clashed against each other.

Meanwhile, at that time, Ichinose was watching the battle between the two on the roof of the building.

( There are no openings )

She was intent on providing the best possible cover fire at all times, but even then she was unable to break into their battle.

(What the hell is this? That zombie doesn’t show any signs of weakness even while he’s talking )
